Cried Out<br />

Standing here in the cold<br />

Close to evening time<br />

Screams and prayers being mumbled<br />

Is all I can hear coming from the front of the line,<br />

Is this the end?<br />

That’s it?<br />

Nothing else left for me to see?<br />

It is like I have only seen the worst that can be,<br />

People being killed,<br />

Forced to do work and fighting over just a bit to eat<br />

I look towards the sky asking,<br />

“Lord please tell me why me?”<br />

When will this be over and done?<br />

But I think we have all known there is no good to<br />

come,<br />

My dreams of happiness and good<br />

have all faded away,<br />

Knowing no one can help me one inch of the way<br />

The line seemed to shorten,<br />

I, next to die,<br />

I waited, tears to fall one at a time,<br />

But I’m all cried out,<br />

I won’t waste my strength,<br />

There are no more tears to cry,<br />

I say my last prayers just to get by<br />

But there is one thing I won’ t do<br />

And that is to say<br />

Goodbye<br />

Summer is a relaxing time.<br />

Winter is time to rejoice and drink.<br />

Spring is time to rest.<br />

Fall, the time to jump.<br />

Sunny weather lets the clean air come.<br />

Crisp clean air comes through.<br />
