Nightmare 
TEEN FOUND DEAD
SHOT-ODED-MURDERED 
The headlines read in my nightmares
In my dreams 
My fear for you 
Slowly grows
The look in your eyes
Sound of your voice
A text A picture A call
There's a word 
A look
  A laugh
     A whisper
The feelings grow 
Ever so slow 
My fear for you 
A look 
  A laugh 
     A whisper 
Don’t let that be the last of you

I think this piece conjures up your desperation well. The repetition works really well.
