The world of today

I sit here and watch
the clouds speeding through the sky
I wonder if I could someday fly
Maybe escape
this horrible place
The world for which I see
Disgusts me
People walking like they have no fears
Smiles upon fading faces
Smoke rise in 100 puffs
Slowly killing all that lives
Blood stains on the sidewalks
From the many guns which they held
Gangs on gangs
Never ending terror
The world is now like a bug
Waiting to fly or be stepped on
So when we go home at night
We take off our pretty masks
Revealing the ugliness inside
We rip our skin off our bones
Drinking in the blood which we drop
When the world sleeps
The horror does not fade
Waiting around haunted corners
Waiting to strike with destructive weapons
Blood fallen from the scorn angel
Popped up on pills
Not even knowing what to expect
The horrific screams
The rushing dreams
You cannot escape
Nor can I
We are slowly dying our painless death
Falling from our pedestals which we held our hopes high
Fading into the ever growing darkness inside our hearts
Trying to break from the shackles of hell
But fail at every chance
Nails drenched in blood
Smell of death all around
We are fighting a war which has no end, nor a beginning
Wearing our mask to hide ourselves
From whom we truly are
We all have fears though they may not show
What do you expect from us?
We are soon going to die
Our world falls in vain
We are screaming in pain
But nobody is listening to our pleads
They go unnoticed and unheard
The world still spins round
When it stops we will never know
But as I spin around in my dreams
Hoping to wake and all be silent
I look out my window
And I’m scared again
