I am the Fallen

I am the fallen,
Dressed neatly in blue,
I dedicated my life,
To protecting you.

I am the fallen,
I was always there,
When bad turned to worse,
And screams filled the air.

I am the fallen,
I cared not about myself,
I put protecting your life,
Above everything else.

I am the fallen,
And though sometimes I got scared,
I faced my fears,
And tried to treat everyone fair.

I am the fallen,
And speaking of fears,
I was only human like you,
Sometimes I even shed tears.

I am the fallen,
And it was no easier for me,
To see the horrible things I've seen,
Most can't imagine what we see.

I am the fallen,
Hated by some and despised,
Although to those we save,
We are heroes in their eyes.

I am the fallen,
And for every child,
I saved from abuse and neglect,
My life was worthwhile.

I am the fallen,
And I patrolled every night,
So you could be safe in your homes,
And your children could sleep tight.

I am the fallen,
And to the ones I love,
I'll still be patrolling,
From way up above.

I am the fallen,
And though I am gone,
Through the lives that I've saved,
My spirit will go on.

I am the fallen,
And there are many like me,
Who gave their lives for others,
And will patrol for eternity.

I am the fallen,
But there are many still around,
Who will always come to your rescue,
No matter what scene they have found.

I am the fallen,
And like many brothers in blue,
I gave my life,
Doing what I swore to do.
