Rising black puffy smoke appears from the trees,
Destroying everything in its path,
Bright colored wild flames are at  the top,
The crowning flames become a firestorm as fires' heads combine,
The only thing I can think of is unstoppable,
Unstoppable memories will always be in my mind
never being able to forget such frightening images,
Trying to stop it would be useless,
Useless was exactly the word for the trees,
Over and over it was getting harder to breathe,
It was taking life from the trees and me,
Last heartbeat's fading in the night,
Finally after what seemed like forever it was over,
Dark crumbled ashes lay beyond my path,
Nothing is all I will ever see
