Left Alone:
-
A child is left alone tonight,
Left alone in a village full
Of people he loved and adored,
They breathe no more.
-
The moon is wide awake tonight,
Making things that are dark,
Seem all too bright,
I close my eyes.
-
By my hand this catastrophe
Was done, and another undone,
Wars prevented, lives destroyed,
All by one.
-
A child is left alone tonight,
I know he is crying,
He wishes his eyes were lying,
I wish mine were too.
-
He is left alone tonight,
My brother, whom I love so dear,
He is alone now, and
I can no longer protect him,
Or ease his fear.
-
I am alone tonight.
