Another wave of fear passes over me.

My body shakes. My teeth clench. My jaw aches.

Here comes another wave. Quicker in coming than the last.

And another.

Heart pounding through my chest.

Endless waves. Over and over.

Waves of terror.

Consume me.

Footage of things I cannot change. On replay. On speed. The remote is broken.

All the alternate options. The choices I should have made. The come back to slap down any argument.

Always too late.

The moment has gone.

But the waves remain.

I am drowning. I cannot get out.

Is this forever? Is this my just rights?

The waves are here.

The waves are me.
