That Day

by Andrea aged 10

It’s that day, the day of death,
The day of no will, the day of last words.
I’m scared,
I shouldn’t die yet,
Or should I?
I’m weaker, they’re crashing harder,
The waves are too strong.
It was such a perfect place,
Only to become a disgrace.
I was supposed to protect this family, what family?
I can’t do this for long,
I have failed this job,
I’ll now try again,
In another life and maybe next time
I won’t fail,
