Do what you love, love what you do.


We tried to help them,
There was just nothing that could be done.
Watching our loved ones suffer and burn,
Jumping from the top floor.
It is my job to comfort them,
Now it’s too late.
Being swallowed by the twins ash,
Blinding my aching eyes.
I tried to help them,
But I only made myself hurt more.

What in spired me to write this piece was a picture of a firefighter from 9'11. It made me think of how they must of felt when there was no hope to save these innocent people.
