"The Story"

Beginning
scared quiet
hoping building missing
different alone lonely dead
crying bombing loving
dark still
End


"A Young Girls Struggle"
Liesel
Loving, sly, intelligent
Who loves her mother and brother
Who fells scared about the future
Who needs words to make her happy
Who shares her words in the bomb shelter
Who fears her world coming to an end
Who'd like to see her mama, papa and Rudy one more time
Who dreams of Max coming back alive
Who ends up living a long life in Sydney
