Fire

I scream out of exhaustion,
This place is just to large,
I can smell the smoke,
I run down stairs,
I am slowly descending.

I fall and cough,
gasp for breath,
Heat and flames,
surround me,

I give up,
Then i see it,
my escape,
I am almost there,

Outside I watch,
my home fall,
Fire encloses everyroom,
nothing will stop it,
I turn to leave.
