This is a warning! ~ If this makes you cry, I deeply apologize.  This is a passage about my greatest fear.  I used lots of description here to make it more believable. Please review.  Tell me what you think!

The wooden boards felt snug up against my sides, hugging me, suffocating me, as I lay there in the dark.  I tried to open my eyes, but they would not disclose the world around me. I tried to yell, but my lips felt sewn shut, as though someone had strung a needle and thread to keep me from speaking to them…My arms felt numb, sharp needles piercing the nothingness, and my heart felt cold.  As I inwardly screamed, a gust of wind hit my face, but whether there was a wind or not, I would never know…I could see them, my mother, my father, my sisters…and they were crying.  And I couldn’t move to comfort them.  Why were they crying?  What was wrong?  I tried to move again, but my limbs protested with an empty void.  My eyes were covered in a black fog, yet I could still see my family as they cried over some trouble that I couldn’t see. Why are they crying? I wondered again.  I so badly wanted to scream, but my lips were motionless, and refused to utter the words I was screaming futilely in my mind.  Mom…Dad…Kati…Danielle… Ashley…Why won’t you tell me what’s wrong?  My eyes could see them, but could not see them as my mother burst into tears the minute she looked at me.  My father held her tight, his eyes fighting against the tears that threatened to overflow and pour down his unshaven face.  My youngest sister clung to my two older sisters, and all three were looking at me, their eyes full of tears.  As I looked at them, but did not look, I remembered the night before.  The car was speeding a little too fast for the highway, my friend’s hair flew wildly about her sick face, her eyes bloodshot, her mouth drooling uncontrollably.  And the tree…that huge tree…it moved on me so fast…the car flipped over, and I was…No!  Mom!  Dad!  Please let me wake up!  Oh, God!  Why?  I wasn’t done yet!  I had never kissed Him, never said goodbye to them!  How could this be?  I struggled to scream, to cry, but I could not; my body was frozen, forever fixed with the closed eyes, the faint smile of regret, and I would never again be able to speak to them, to tell them I loved them…I was forever asleep, in the tombs of the dead.
