Poem Title:
Poem
Lying in my bed one night , I hear the quiet, It does not feel at all right, Something is about to take place, In this disunited human race, And then, the world that I knew, Its comforts, my family, my dog, My little pet frog, My bicycle that took me To school, No longer exist, My arm is bleeding, My heads’ spinning, The noise, the blasts, Impending Bombs exploding, Amongst all this chaos I manage to find shelter near What was my home, An old photo of my parents Floats up towards the sky, Then down past me Lands in front of Something or someone strange Who looks identical to me, Am I dreaming, This feels surreal. A being extends their hand To me without hesitation, I am bewildered, Petrified Beyond imagination, In sheer desperation, I accept, Expecting the unimaginable, The unfathomable, A fog appears surrounding Me as if it were a blanket, I no longer feel like the target, This being is gentle and kind Our hands still entwined, I am led up some stairs, I turn around to see The devastation, The world behind me Is an abomination, Endless desecration, I have nowhere to hide, Don’t want to be left behind, I enter a space where I See familiar faces, my best friend, My brother, my teacher, My preacher, The being tells me to not be afraid, We are all on a crusade, There are other familiar faces, People I have met During my lifetime on Earth Selected¸ Destined, To be reunited, In a Universe Of aeons far away Where we would awake Up one day, On the banks of a watershed Where we would tread A new era, a greener place, A new beginning Where hopes would Be brimming, I felt humbled I was to be a pioneer An unknown spec of sand, Among some Of humanity who would Begin a new world, Part of a new universe A parallel to the one destroyed Whose population was no Longer techno driven, No hate or crime, Just time, Where you and I, would learn to Survive all over again, At a much slower pace, Nothing anymore feels surreal It is a new era dawning, Along with a sense of belonging.
