Poetry
Shock flows over me
Like a river
Numbing me with cold
With disbelief
Tears flow out of me
Like a river
Hurting me with loss
With pain
Fear flows over me
Like a river
Paralyzing me with terror
With unknowns
Anger flows through me
Like a river
Burning me with horror
With hatred
Resolve wells up in me
Like a river
Strengthening me with power
With honor
Hope flows under me
Like a river
Buoying me with faith
With calm
Love flows over me
Like a river
Comforting me with friendship
With care
Peace flows over me
Like a river
Assuring me with belief
With prayer

Wow. I loved how the simple short sentences and the repetition of "Like a River" created so much power. Wonderful job.
I love how you equated the emotions to a river. I love the repetition of "Like a river"... I love it all! Well written, I'm sure the majority of people went through those same emotions on that tragic day.
