it was just another day
little did i know what this day had in store
for i was about to see something i wasn't ready for
buckled in my seat
driving down a neighborhood street
no other cars in sight
a mother putting up a fight
her home being not that far
stuck, locked inside a burning car
flipped sideways, not being able to push open the door
hearing nothing but terrifying screams of horror
i quickly pulled over and jumped on top of her car to help pry open the door
looking down in the car and seeing a hopeless family of four
covered in blood and crying hopelessly galore
seeing this made my heart soar
a supernatural like power came over me and i was able to opened the door
i climbed in and one by one unbuckled the children and carried them out
but getting the mother unstuck i had to take a different rout
her seat belt was stuck
and it caused her to be severely cut
but i wasn't about to give up
getting her out was extremely rough
but she was tough, she hung in there just barley long enough
holding them close, for they were outta breath
shaking from shock, and scared to death
seeing that frightened family sitting on the curb
all of them speechless ..not saying one word
was something i couldn't just shake off, it was something i couldn't ignore
the police, ambulance and fire truck finally came
and attended to the family
they told me that they would be okay and that i shouldn't fear
i was told to leave for they would take over from here
i was so angry...i wish they never came
for i was the real hero that day, but i walked to my car and drove away in shame
for no one asked me what happened, no one even asked for my name
i left the family with a feeling of disarray
no one cared that because of me they lived to see another day
its so sad to see
how many people aren't acknowledged for their good deeds
but then again this was
....just another day
*(this and most everything i write about is based off true happenings)
