Let's Escape The Planet Poem by Tebogo Angela Poen

If we could all leave this world
There won't be any more pain left for anyone
This life is not an ending war
Been fighting but never won
My only break is when I mourn

Again and again it keeps going on,
to run i tried
but to my hiding camp i never arrived.
War be everywhere,
in the dark, in the light,
here and there

Nobody warned me about the world's natural, emotional and mental disasters
But I find comfort in looking up the stars
Saying to myself, I'll get there
Trying to make it to my hiding camp before I cough out my last breath
But am I even heading there?

Will i even know I'm there?
Will there be beings who are fair?
whose ears can hear.
For i have cried enough yet none gave me comfort.
For I've fought more yet none compliments my effort.
O! How i Wish i find a transport, ride and disappear

my biggest fear; to where?
What if I'm closest to the last round?
Would I even win when all I know is the smell of the ground?
Honestly if I was warned about the world
I would have turned to Hitler a long time ago

Call me heartless, if u think it's painless watching people living a meaningless life.
My wish remains, for all of us to leave this world
