    Our Place

    I hear the sirens
    They’ll never
    Take me
    Alive
    Duck into the
    Deepest pits of
    My fears
    Disguise myself
    As I once was
    I see the flashing
    Lights
    They’ll never
    Come to find me
    Here
    Quickly blur the
    Line, step over
    The thinly drawn
    Boundary,
    Draw it back again
    They’ll never know
    Our rivers of blood
    Let’s hope they
    Don’t wash it away
    A marker of
    Our troubled
    Youth it will
    Stay
    Let all the others
    Who were like
    Us realize
    They have a
    Place to go
    When the world
    Grows dark and
    Cold,
    There were our
    Aging and decaying
    Bodies
    Forever we will lay,
    Guardians of the
    Place where everyone
    Can stay
    The only price
    We make to play
    Will be our blood
    To help wash
    The worlds tears
    Away.

    Cries from the dark pierce the air. Forever youth lives there. And a child shall lead them. Another great write.

    Poetry comes nearer to vital truth than history.

    Plato (BC 427-BC 347) Greek philosopher.
