missing in action is the phrase that goes around
fear fills us all as the phrase is whispered again
instantly the search shall begin
the biggest must go and the littles must stay
the oldest left shall be in charge while the bigs are away
only one problem becomes the biggest
who ends up running the body when the bigs are out looking
it was quite be accident that all went away
never quite imaging that the bigs got lost some way
the hours fly by and not a word is heard
silently the search continues deep into the head
but things unseen start to arise and dark sides are takin
good verses bad again and again
the fighting and yelling the accusing and crying
the blame is thrown but no one is catching
the sky goes darker than black
with slashes of red and blue rolling through
only one person was missing and now the fighting begins
the fights not fair with strong against weak
the fights not fair with dark against light
pushing and pulling flooding and more
the night never ends but to even the score
voices are heard in the distance way off
the sounds of our littles fearful and brave
calling out in the darkness above all the yells
the innocents are crying and falling in the dark
surprised more than hurt calling out for help
the littles tears wash the ground
the bigs go to hide what has gone on
picking and choosing through all the new memory's
huddling in dark corners and spaces
littles stay hidden until the missing one is found
the safest of all send out reassuring thoughts
gathering up stray littles and holding them tight
everything is over the big has been found
the dark has once again turned back to light
