    The War In Our Head

    by: Samuel F.

    As I look out of the window at the city below,
    I see planes, fires, fighting, and war
    I see demolition and destruction continuing to grow
    Who knows what’s now in store?

    Life used to be so easy
    Then something had to change
    Now the future makes me queasy
    And life is getting strange

    Planes are flying into streets
    Clouds of dust go everywhere
    The whole process then repeats
    The lasers pierce the sooty air

    People everywhere are dying
    The rays of red know where they’ll aim
    Babies everywhere are crying
    I feel I will do the same

    Where to go now, where to hide?
    I know I’m safe inside my bed
    Yet even though I am inside
    I can’t escape this feeling of dread

    For life is like this, we all know
    It will never be the same
    The planes outside go to and fro
    Sending houses up in flame

    Robots now clank through the town
    It seems as if the end is near
    More buildings now go tumbling down
    The robots are inducing fear

    Robots, planes, lasers, more
    How terrifying could it get?
    From the rooftops smoke will pour
    Do these planes not have any regret?

    But the war on the street
    Is the same as in our head
    For when we try to be discreet
    We cause chaos instead

    So, looking out the window
    What else can I say?
    The planes, lasers, and robots know
    That they have won the day

    As I look out of the window at the city below,
    I see planes, fires, fighting, and war
    I see demolition and destruction continuing to grow
    Who knows what’s now in store?
