Fire Of Change

by Jamie   Nov 8, 2006


Four Days After Christmas.
That one horrid day,
Started out so nice,
Going to practice,
Having so much fun,
Practice ended early,
What a Joy!
A great day.
So I thought.

Me sitting in my room,
watching TV.
Happy as can be.
But then,
My Step-dad,
Barges in my room,
Oh I thought he was mad at me,
But Why?
Just then he grabs my arm.
Tells me come on,
We have to get out.
I grab my cell phone.
Wondering what is going on.
As we pass the Christmas tree,
I see what is happening.
I see bright orange flames,
High as anything,
Reaching the ceiling.
I start crying.
I get out of the house,
run up the street,
to my friends house.
I call the police,
tell them what happened.
As I reach my friends house,
She opens the door,
I am in tears,
I tell what happened.

Her mom is there,
asks if the police have been called,
I say yes.
Then I walk outside,
Call my mom,
I look down street,
after being told not do.
I see flames,
reaching over the trees,
I break down in tears.
As i tell my mom what happened,
she rushes home.

After the police and fire trucks,
have left,
we walk down the street.
My mom has called my aunt.
So I can over there.

I then move to my cousins.
Staying there for the rest of the year.
I do not want to see my mom.
I am happy to have left them.
but then i am made to come home.

I sink into a depression.
After that fire of change.

--This really happened to me. Rate and comment please.--
