JR-EMS

Thanks for reading! - Jeremy Rosenau

I wrote this with "unknown", a firefighter poem in mind. Brother when you weep for me Remember it was meant to be Lay me down and when you leave Remember I'll be at your sleeve. In summers heat or winter snow I'll be on every call you go. In the back, compressing, 1,2,3, You'll save a life and think of me In neighborhoods where bullets fly, At fire's where young victims cry Where cars collide and dreams are crushed I'll be there with you in a rush. The unit which I now ride on Is fully staffed with medics gone. Those who died in MVA's And those who died in other ways. As Paramedics we see first hand The death that plagues our fellow man. We try to put it out of mind But it's impossible we all will find. Our memories we do ignore As we approach our patients door. For we know we are the only prayer For the lovely life who needs us there. So remember as you wipe your tears The lives to which I added years For they're what made my life worth living I pray you'll always keep on giving.
