the cats lost their lives


The fire in the building
The cats got trapped in the apartment
The owner wasn't at home
The cats jumping high and low

The fire spread the heat and smoke
Neighbours ran out to safer ground
The running feet on the steps
There was no time to look back

The cats of 3
One ran to the room
There was no escape
It died with fire and smoke

The other 2 cats
Jumped through the open window
19 storey plunging down to the ground
The cats didn't survive the fall

The gravity sucked them in
The cats were dead
The children looked
Nothing could save them

The female owner came
When she was informed of her renting unit
She cried seeing her cats died
It would be a while before she looked for another
