Missing
(Published as "Prayer of the Victim". . .Both names suck but oh well)
Excuse me but I need some help.
I seem to be very very confused.
Before you turn me down, dear God
Please put yourself in my shoes.
You see I can't find my big brother.
He's been gone for a long time.
My mommy says she cannot help,
but she said YOU'RE the one to find.
Before my brother went away he told me you're a LIE
But if you help me find him, I'm sure he'll change his mind.
He carried around an orange bottle.
It made a rattling sound!
I'm sure you'll find him in no time,
if you keep your ear to the ground.
Be prepared when you DO find him.
Please make sure he isn't hurt.
He always seems to smell like smoke,
I really hope he isn't burnt. . .
My brother was always strong and smart. . .
So I'm sure he'll be okay. . .
But our family misses him more and more
every passing day.
I've got some clues to where he is!
My dad says he's in Heaven.
I don't how to get there yet though. . .
Maybe when I'm seven. . .
My pastor says something different.
--Says he chose the path of "suicide."
I don't know where that is either,
but YOU could find it if you tried!
Our whole family misses him
I think my parents most of all
My daddy hasn't gone to work
and at night I hear Mom crying through the wall.
I hope you see how sincere I am.
It's not often that I pray.
But once my brother comes back home to us.
Everything will be okay.
