The War

What is going on
Why does everyone look so scared
Zooming from the sky comes a big black bomb
Vision becomes impaired

I now can’t see
I’m scrabbling for a hold
Then I feel something on my knee
There is something being told

I have lost my mummy and daddy
Brother and sister too
I will now throw a paddy
Because I don’t know what to do

How do I find my way
How am I meant to survive
They expected this everyday
And now the millions thrive

I crawl along the ground
The screaming and shouting dies down
Now there is no sound
They have wiped out the entire town

I am lying here in silence
I do not say a word
I do not move a muscle
This war was so absurd
