Kreigh Ludena
By Kenneth R. Cabrieto

     Leading the pack yet again
     Into something we'll all regret sooner or later.
     Helping tally up the scores
     And laughing about it all.
     I already feel bad but I can't quit,
     Not when they're all depending on me.

     Told them all that I wanted to end it.
     They laughed,
     The idea is just a clever joke to them.

     This has all been our way for too long now.
     We don't know how else to go about life.
     I know no matter what I choose
     They will still all follow.

     I'm scared.
     I don't want any of us to get hurt again.
     If I'm wrong that may just happen.

     I don't know what to do
     And I'm supposed to lead.
