A Storm Is Coming

A storm is coming near On our faces, nothing but fear Ignorance protects the heart of the young Never knowing what they're among Some shake their heads in disbelief Some take cover in the earth beneath Man protect woman, woman protect child Objects tossed, this wind is wild A cry for help is never heard Every man for himself, it's quite absurd You know the saying "joy comes in the morning" But in their hearts it's still a bit stormy They remember the ones they loss even though they are now apart, may they know they remain in our hearts, as life goes on to a new start A storm is coming, a storm has came The storm is over, lives were claimed And the ones that are left will never be the same... A storm is coming so is the pain - Ashley Humes
