The calming sea,
Nothing awaits me,
No movement or storm,
Yet it feels warm,
Smooth sailing for hours,
No thundershowers,
No longer will I seethe,
I have a moment to breathe.

High Rise, Deep Impact
I have witnessed a death that I relive every time I step into an elevator. Although it no longer affects me as deeply—given that it's been 11 years since the incident—it remains a heart- rending memory from my first and last day as a paramedic. My initial call to the scene involved a man who seemed to have fallen down the elevator shaft of a high-rise building. Alternatively, it might have been that the elevator moved upwards while he was working on it. Different scenarios were being considered when I arrived.
