Adrift

life

war

tears pour

torched by fire

missed the rapture

run for your life

don't get captured

broken and fractured

injured in the battle

no words just babble

the tanks broke

sharks out for a nibble

took my pen out for a scribble

to write a little

it'll be a little drafty

today with a little sun ray

a little rain without delay

children running in the hallway

I wish they could go out and play

even if the sun shines

it's too dangerous coz

some folks are just treacherous

murderous and terrorist

living is taking a risk
