Under The Ground

Blinded by the sun’s golden rays as it grew higher still

The sudden realization made me bang a fist on the windowsill

The sound of a deafening shriek tore through my ears

Noticing it coming from my lips confirmed my fears

Beauty and radiance start embracing me with one arm

Whispering wonderful reassuring words of no harm

And caress my sweaty cheek with its other tender hand

Trying to calm me down, and make me understand

Whatever it is they are trying so hard to prove

But the light is blinding me, I panic, I try to move

I struggle, but I notice I am trapped, I can’t get away

I scream and yell much louder, cursing the day

It is very frightening, my heart starts beating much faster

Skipping beats while my eyes widen, feeling disaster

Coming close as they try to pull me outside

“No, NO!” I yell, I break away, I run, I hide

As I inhale and exhale sharply, I look around

And find it peaceful, where I lie, under the ground
