Sirens Poem by Mila Bell

Sirens

Rating: 4.7


At the park I was sitting alone,
almost rained that day
And people were running away,
being afraid for their lives,
But i didn't

I wasn't scared,
I heard it already,
I knew it was coming, what was it for?
screaming, or crying
We're all dying, under god's trial

But to admit,
In my mind you slipped through,
and I was afraid you forgot me
It's the end of the world,
And I wanted to know where you at,
Were you scared?
Were you thinking about me?

Were you screaming my name,
At the top of your lungs
When your body was aching
From the last breathe that you've taken
Heartbeat increased
And arms tried to grab me
but i wasn't there

I knew you were suffering from regrets
of not doing something,
Or saying the wrong words
To the people you loved the most
You wanted to do something right,
for the first time in a lifetime
but the end was too near to be brave
(even for once)

and sirens were screaming
And rain was heavy
And I knew you are coming
But bombs came too soon
