The Fireman

Alone and afraid,                                                                                                                                                                  
     In the fire, I cried.                                                                                                                                                      
     I was losing hope.                                                                                                                                                   
     I could barely breathe.                                                                                                                                                             
     How could I survive?

     I prayed and prayed.                                                                                                                                                            
     I yelled for help.                                                                                                                                                                           
     Is this the end?                                                                                                                                                                
     How can this be? 

     Me, dying?                                                                                                                                                         
     God, save me!                                                                                                                                                                       
     Send angel!

     Fireman
