From dark to night,
I hide from the light
Scared for my life,
Scared of the knife
Boom, boom go the bombs,
I have to keep calm,
1,2,3, … breathe
Hide underneath
I read my book,
I hide in my nook.
Everyone should have a book,
Because, Look…
I am in a war
Where there is gore.
But you see
I am happy being me
A book is what you need
To lead
To help you breathe
