Lost in the darkness
afraid to make a stand
hiding in a coner
like a frightened little man.
Death is all around me
its flowing though my veins
as the sun begins to rise
it darkens more each day
Each day you go to school
could almost be your last
why are you so cheerful
as death creaps up your back
I don't know how people do it
ignore the signs of life
Pretend there is nothing wrong
they one day just up and die.
