Mommy it’s dark
and I can’t see,
I can’t even hear what you’re telling me.
Where is the light?
Don’t worry I will fight.
Daddy I’m scared
Of all the hurt you have shared,
I didn't think that you actually cared.
Where is your smile?
I haven’t seen it for a while.
Brother it’s gone
The happiness you shone.
The chances of my survival are zero to none.
Where is my heart?
I think it’s having trouble to restart.
Sister I’m there
Don’t worry it’s fair,
I enjoy being able to observe and stare.
Did you find any hope?
It got strangled by my rope.
