Invisible War
April 3, 2011
Watching waiting
Eyes glaring
Tongues tied
Any minute now
Hand tightening
The fight WILL break out
Colors flashing
There’s no stopping it
No resisting it
It’s like a plague spreading at the speed of sound
You can’t retreat now
It’s like a time bomb
Waiting to blow
The silence is screaming like a banshee
Lost for words
And those words are flying like birds
Faster than ever before
Blood is boiling
Minds are racing
Before you know it
You’ve spoken
And it's too late
What’s said is done
This is what we all wanted
It’s the beginning of the end
