A Forlorn Cry
Why can’t you hear my forlorn cry?
Its restless desire calls out each night
Waiting for you to answer it
But you ignore my forlorn cry
Only thinking of your own self
Why won’t you answer my helpless call?
Its feeble sound grows softer each day
Hoping you will come to its aid
But you ignore my helpless call
Not thinking of the pain that burns in me
Each time you ignore my forlorn cry
You fuel the burning pain
I have suffered all my life
