Alphabetical Torture (an alphabetical writing exercise from my writer's group - by A)

(***Note: Beginning with the letter H and continuing through the alphabet, my assignment was to start each sentence with the next letter in the alphabet.)

Help me, help me please!
I'm drowning in your lies.
Just please say I'm okay.
Killer bees surround my helpless and limp body.
Lying here, being stung.
Melting away, it's excruciating.
Not what I wanted, that's for sure.
Opposing all lies and mess.
Puss streams and I scream.
Quirkily trying to run, but I've lost depth.
Respiration is weakening.
Stop, bees, stop!
Trying to live, trying to feel something but pain, I still run.
Understand my misery yet?
Vests of black and yellow engulf me.
Wings of translucent clear find me and flap.
Xylophones of color, buzzing, always buzzing right at me.
Yelp after yelp, no one hears me.
Zzub, zzub, they are flying backwards now.
And the reverse button works today.
Because it knows that my life depends on it.
Can't believe how much relief floods my present self!
Dumbfounded and amazed, I smile.
Excited, I yell for joy.
Finally free, finally me again.
Great things come of time machines.
