Ambulances In The Night


Ambulances In The Night

I saw her
Last night
In the middle
Of the street
Passed out
Maybe conscious
Not dead
I hope not

Someone calls
911
And soon
Ambulances
In the night
Arrive without
Warning
Disguised
As angles
To save her
Life

I stand
Frozen in
Fear and
Helplessness
I watch
As they
Taker her
Away

The next day
I stand in the
Same spot
Where she lied

Wondering
If she’s
Alive
If she’s
All right
If she
Made it
Through the
Night

I say
A prayer
And walk
Away
Knowing
Her life
Will be
Changed
Changed forever
Today
