One moment in time

premonition pricks and worries strike
to abseil backwards off the roof your choice

and Whitney Huston pop chart hit
"one moment in time" you hear a clip

frozen milliseconds trapped in ice
the reel so slow just slice by slice

transfixed stare cant look away
shock so great feet stuck in clay

cold beads of sweat and clammy palm
blood pressure reddened face and arms

your hair could turn grey with the fright
nightmare memories day and night

afterbirth and gore cover the floor
you put it in now see it born

this was just no false alarm
baby safe in its mothers arms
