Helpless

I am Helpless. The tears falling at my feet. I am helpless He is laying there. He is helpless. His leg moves. He is helpless. I can hear his voice under the pool of blood in his mouth. He wants to help. My mom is yelling at the police. She is helpless "Sorry mam? Whats the emergency" They are helpless I want to get up. i want to tell them what happened.  but i cant move Im helpless My mom is pushing down on his chest trying to get his heart to beat.  She is helpless I want to tell her to stop. I am Helpless I cant move. I am Helpless I cant do anything but cry. I am Helpless. He dies and i am helpless.
