Poem Title:
Poem
It seems my heartbeat is still shuddering my skin is still muttering little flickers of breathing here, sit down, try to relax hold a second in hand and let the time tick by though time exists not and it's the anxiety filling up the air grabbing me by the collar and whispering every single threat it can muster at me What did I do so wrong Mothra, why did the villains at war decide to clip your wings and leave me in this fright of a fight for my life on my own How did this come about a question to hang, suspended in the pouring rain as I look up to the sky, my face turned upward in a flash of pain as the horrid beauty tore through the clouds before my eyes so I took to the pavement, a gallant steed to get to the nearest place of safety If only I weren't so afraid of things bigger than me if only I weren't so timid to tame these metal beasts immune to me I wouldn't be in this mess I wouldn't be so afraid I'd lose my head resting upon my neck but I'm so terrified It looks like the heavens and angels are locked in a fire fight as cracks the clouds resemble firecracker fissures upon the ground though they make little sound all the more haunting, all the more frightening It takes all I am not to cower in a room and wait for one more hour to pass before I make my move Until I deem it safe for me to reside, to keep walking in stride to my destination so I can abide by my rules and perform my duties I feel so childish The people around me are all calm the people around me carry on as usual the people around me act as nothing is going on like this is normal No, rain is the normal occupant in this region no, rain and wind are natural, no sign of disaster no, rain, wind, these gray clouds are easy to bear but how can you sit still, relax and sip your coffee while above you, the clashing of swords in this heavenly war threatens to tear our atmosphere is what I would say if I wasn't trying to plot and plan my escape counting seconds before flashes, all in three's is when the clashes begin I try to unravel my fist full of promises, hoping so heavily to not be wrapped up in bandages from burns from a bolt Zeus was hurling across the sky I Am Terrified
