so small

i feel

frightened

to 

the world outside

the

wars and the

constant screaming

echoing in my mind

vibrating through my bones

this

is

all it takes

for my blood to run cold

and all their

precious

goodbye's

why isn't this

tearing us apart

like it 

used to

we used to 

feel

now

there

is

nothing but hatred

steeled in our eyes

and

guns

at

our sides
