Something in me



Sleeping at night and walking in the

darling light.Laying in my arm but she

didn't feel so warm.Smiling at me as I

smiled back.She was cold as a freezer as I

froze like a freezer.She laid and died in

my arms.The person of a child who was

filled with warmth.A tear fell out my eye

as I begin to cry.Oh Please Oh Please dont

let it end this way.A cry for help I begin

to say.But something was holding me back

from calling for help.And I knew it was the

end as she lay there cold in my arms with

no heart beat.But it was something else

that kept me going.Something I can stil

remember that she did as dhe rest in my

arms.It was her smile that she gave that

sent me hope and warmth.That let you know

that it was only the beginning for

something that was and died inside of me.
