Australian fire

The fires are a blazing, there is nowhere to hide, the heat is over bearing but I am stuck inside. Things crash around me, screams from far and near ,when will this be over? I can’t stand it here. The sirens of the fire trucks, the water from the hose, everyone is trying their best, but it’s just wants to explode. The heat is unbearable, the exhaustion is kicking in, I want to rest my head ,the fire just won’t give in. We must keep on fighting, people still need our help , we are going to win this war, their pain can be felt,many people injured, many lives are lost, we need to keep on pushing through at any given cost. Please let this all be over, just give us a bit of rain, take away the sorrow and all of the pain, there has been enough destruction, enough is enough, the aftermath visible,this is going to be tough We need to work together ,we need to all stay strong ,we will rebuild this place and it won’t be long.for things to once again settle, the pain will also fade then we can all face the challenges and decisions that need to be made. So all I am asking ,is for just that little break, for the fire to finally fall asleep , i dont how much more I can take
