Mommy, I didn't mean to cry
#4
Very effective. I think it could be a little more descriptive. Especially on the last two lines that end in 'outside'. We know that this stuff is happening outside and the repetition doesn't seem significant to me. "How they died' doesn't come off as something a child would say. I think it would be better with the spacing consistent:

Boom.

There's banging outside,
Because I cried, I cried!

Shriek.

There's screaming outside,
Oh! how they died, they died!

Crack.

There's madmen outside,
can we hide, mommy hide!
