If Only Tears Could Put Out the Fire
Firestorm
It doesn't care
Whether its a shack
Or a six million dollar
Mansion in the Palisades,
It destroys everything in
It's path
Leaving grief
In the ashes!
It doesn't care
Whether you are
An A-list actor
Or someone struggling
To get by
It creates a path
Of pain
And questions why.
Fire its a force
Not to be
Messed with
A monster
When out of
Control
Wiping out
Buildings
And sadly lives too.
Fire,
Blackening the sky
Turning day to night
And night to
A fiery red sky.
~~~
It’s destroying
Everything in its
Path
Turning Lives upside down
If only tears
Could put out
The fires.
