Horizon

We watch,
The red sun rise,
War is coming,
We’ve to be prepared,
For something,
That might not even,
Be true,
Yet,
Fear grips us,
As we stare,
Uncertain,
Heads bowed,
To our phone screens,
Watching the news,
Waiting,
For an end,
For a call,
There’s already,
So much war,
What’s another,
As we fear,
As we are on our knees,
In chains,
To the overlord’s,
Above us,
They will not give us,
Mercy,
Even if we pray,
We are slaves,
In a world,
That wants divide,
In a world,
Where the facts,
Aren’t so black and white,
So,
We stare at the sun,
Watching the horizon,
As a shadow is cast,
And we can do nothing
