Songs in Poem

The war had begun.

The air, 

filled with ashes.

The sky, 

Dark as night.

 


As the time ticks by,

I feel more and more like a prisoner,

Not only to my duty,

But to my own mind.

 


Still feeling the guilt,

Of leaving my mother 

To fight this bloody war,

But I need to do my time,

I need to protect those in need,

I need to protect them from those who hurt,

The renegades.

 


I still cant help to think it's not enough,

And we will all become prisoners.


The author's comments:

This Poem is based on of a song written by the popular band, Greta Van Fleet. The song is, The Barbarians. This song as a war feeling to it and as a sad meaning. My hope is to connect to the song.
