The Cry

What would I do
If things don’t go right?
When I’ve done all I can 
To never lose the fight?

Would I shed
a thousand tear
And live a life 
full of fear?

Or would I
fight to death 
until the very
last breath?

What would I do 
now that I’m forsaken?
Would I let them pay
for what they have taken?

My life, my future, 
now they're all gone
All because of what 
you have done!

Can anyone do
hear my cry?
This heart is aching 
yet these eyes are dry.

Oh please tell me 
what should I do?
To make the pain
And sadness go?
