Darkness falls
Wraps us in its endless sorrow.
We scream for release,
And to our horrow
Only our screams answer back.
We cry out, we plead, we prey,
But still we are offered no escape.
We continue to fight the darkness.
As time continues we become weaker.
We are not strong enough to keep fighting,
For we can not fight a battle to which we see no end.
We are sorry mother that we will not return home to you as
promised,
That you will have to celebrate your birthday alone,
That we will not be their to share in your joy or sorrow.
We are sorry.
Please forgie us.
