Donning his helmet
As he goes to fight
The blazing fire
Into the night.
Pulse racing
As he rushes inside
Squinting-trying to focus
Not knowing what he might find.
Feeling around throught the darkness
Trying to steady his breath
Could this be what it feels like?
When the times comes to face death?
Ears are alert
To each crackling sound
"More water" he calls
Something he has found.
Off in the corner
Something is there
Getting closer-what can it be?
My angel's waiting here for me.
Smoke is billowing
The structure's caving in
Another hero is lost
Though found salvation in him.
