It's Lights Out Poem by Tom Allport
It's Lights Out
Rating: ★5.0
It's lights out
The man cried
It's lights out
And we all cried
For we were children of an early age
Lost in the dark
Lost in the night
Tears joined in spite of a cry
From a man who knows
Night and darkness
Shall only grow
In those minds of fearful woe.
