a moment at the end

naomiix

Flash!

a strike in the sky 

Bang!

i urge thee to die

screams pierce my ears all around

lights... as I fall to the ground

 

quick, unsure where to go

panic panic, how shall I know 

if I will live or if die

and whether or not I should even try

 

why has the world come down to this?

bullet shells deciding if I live?

a world of hurt and unfair play

who decides the sides anyway?

 

if it's God I question why?

god almighty high in the sky 

if it's us what shall we do 

to rectify what's old and new

 

He stands there now all guns alight

over me ready for a fight

i have no fight left anymore 

bang!

I lie there on the floor

    Great poem. A cry from the innocent caught in battles not of their own.
