My town

 



My town was made of mirrors

No one liked the reflection

No one dared to look beyond them

My country was a war zone

We tried to lose our own shadows

One, we are one

That’s what we heard

The blind, the deaf, the numb

So strong the blindness

We stopped thinking

Our very core just one nice big fluff

Packet of same feelings and same faith

My town was heartless

People hating themselves so much

They had obligation of spreading it out

The town I always wanted

Was made of changing colors

Material bent as it went

It had windows that let air in

The curtains that opened and shut as it pleased

That town loved the shadows

It spread the charm and not let wallow
