No Help Comes!

Mommy, get up!
nasty red stuff in her mouth
eyes open, can't talk
arms, legs don't move
Mommy is broken!

Can't leave her
no warm hand to hold
I'm cold, Mommy's colder
see broken glass, arms, legs
no snack, no water

I cry, no one comes
where to go? where's home?
daddy''s gone to war.
what is war? Is everybody mad?
why are they mad?

I'm sleepy! Too much noise.
oh no, I wet my pants
Mommy will be mad
looks like red colored milk
tummy hurts, dress messy

sleepy now, lay down
close to Mommy,
where's God?
can't move or see
someone help me!!!!!
Pleaseeee!
