She Burns

Help

I heard a cry from far around
Someone told me it was a daydream in my mind coming around.

I wished I could hear the cry once more
For I could help the person come home.

I knew it wasn't a daydream
I knew it wasn't my mind's scream.

I could hear the person shout help
But those people told 'me' to get help.

They closed their eyes to someone dying.
How could i close my doors to someone trying?

I wish I could hear the cry once more.
For i could try telling the people to believe me some more.

I stayed up all night waiting to hear a sound
'Crisp' I heard someone coming around.

I turned back to see his dark face
Big footsteps coming to me in fast pace.

Dont fool yourself ' he said
Dont waste yourself 'he said

This world doesn't help those cries' he said
These people don't mess with liars he said.

Dont wish to hear that cry once more!
They'll kill you for being a coward once more.

Come join the mercilless crowd of people.
Come enjoy the fearless side of people

No! I yelled back in fear.
A hand grasped my ear.

I heard him muttering "Innocent" under his breath.
That's when he let the gun under my neck.

I could feel my life flying to halt.
I could see how cries were meant to stop.

I wished I hadn't wished to hear the cry once more
I wish I had gone with the flow once more.

Because now I needed to scream for help!
But I am sure those people hushed any person who heard me cry for help.
