To Save

" To Save "

She followed her little puppy
into the middle of the street
a truck was speeding down the road
I quickly swept her off her feet.

I felt the truck run into me
it sent me up to meet our lord
I saved that young girls precious life
and going to heaven is my reward.

There is no hate nor crime up here
we all love one another
I see the girl whose life I saved
just become a beautiful mother.

I know my loved ones grieved and mourned
that day they learned I was gone
I had To Save that little girl
so her young life could go on...

Hey Mickey...It's inspiring to know that someone cares enough to let the young live a full life. In the end someone else gets eternal life. Almost brought tears to my eyes.
