Death Row

Written in 2008 in my 6th grade math class...

  Every where around me I see nothing, but dark faint figures. As I sit alone amoung them I feel as if my life has slipped through my now stiff and cold hands. Suddenly a door opens. Those once faint, dark figures were now... not so faint. I open my eyes to a wonderfully bright light. But, as I moved forward I realized that... I to was a faint one. For that white light had been my life shifting down another path. A path I know now as Death Row.

    Time after time I tried to figure out how this had happened so quickly. So when I toke my walk down death row I had flash backs of how I died. I was in school during class... When a fire broke out in the kitchen of the lunch room. When the alarm went off we couldn't get out of the. Once the wooden door burst into flames all hell broke loose. I nor my class mates made it out alive.

   Once my flash backs were over I was still cold and alone. I don't think any of us saw it coming. Now we'll all be walking down death row. Knowing this " I feel like it was my fault. " I have so many questions... What happened to my family? Have they found our bodies? Now I sit here still waiting for the answers. I wait and wait until finally... I wake up to my teacher asking me if I was okay. I told her I was okay when suddenly the fire alarm went off. We got up and the teacher could not open the door. Then I thought of my dream and wondered... Had my horrible nightmare of death now come true?
