Power Squared
Why… this power!
So strong
So so strong
Like rocket ship in launch
Blasting up
In mid air it goes
Leaving behind the earth
With a mighty force
Ripping up the surface
So terrible
So so terrible
I am taken off course
Out of myself
That has strength
Look at me
A child so frightened
As if not seen ships in launch before
Frazzled, be-dazzled
Oh this power is strong
So so strong
I have forgotten the science behind a launch
Yet the same Physics
Leaves me in helpless wonder
The same atoms breaking
Ever consuming everything
So so everything
There is no stopping this force
It is beyond its own
My so seemed vulnerabilities
Frailty threading through my bone
Turned defenseless
I fall
I so so fall
