boom

by Unknown, 8th
Love 
It has hidden in the shadows somewhere where it is dark
Fear
It has nested a home inside of us
We’re SCARED to watch the news AFRAID to watch as the next tragedy unfolds
When will the next gun be picked up 
When will the next bullets be shot
When will the next bomb be set
The bomb is already ticking, it has been set 
Within me, I’m ready to explode 
One day my words will blow up
They will shake the world with all its power 
And shock the country with all its courage
But the bomb isn’t only in me
It’s in all of the youth’s mind, ready to go off
When the time is right we will stand
We will use all of our ability to change the ways of the past
Because the only thing left to change the future
Is the future
