The Sun Rises


The Sun Rises
by Lord R.e. Taylor

The Sun rises on a new day
A young child climbs from the rubble
Crawling over the bodies of her family
She finds her last loved-one
A teddy bear given her at her birth
Even with her best friend with her
She still feels alone and helpless
And this October 8th is just the first day
Of many lonely days filled with heartache
