Nightmares
He stood in the silence
The dead city greeted him
The walls were falling
No one cried as they fell
Their only hero stood
He felt like he was dreaming
‘None of this could be real’
He thought as he stood in silence
The city flashed, then it left
The young hero screamed
As he felt the pain of
The ones he couldn’t save
He passed out like an old drunk
Scared of his own shadows
He awoke to the sound of
His city alive and well
The dead city greeted him
The walls were falling
No one cried as they fell
Their only hero stood
He felt like he was dreaming
‘None of this could be real’
He thought as he stood in silence
The city flashed, then it left
The young hero screamed
As he felt the pain of
The ones he couldn’t save
He passed out like an old drunk
Scared of his own shadows
He awoke to the sound of
His city alive and well
