I sit on the dirty ground staring at the sky with tears filling my eyes.

I start to cry because almost everyone that I love a lot is dying.

I finally see something forming in the sky.

I figure out that it was a man.

He says,” A cry for help” and then he dissapeared into thin air.

I then try to figure out what that meant, but I just couldn’t get what he said.

I sit there thinking.

Then it finally hit me,” A cry for help” meant I should go to someone and ask them how do I deal with this?

I finally stand up then just walk down the road and I start to cry again, but this time it really was,”a cry for help.”

My other great grandfather has cancer in his lungs and he will be dying very soon so I just knew that I could cry for help.
