all I have to do

we had a long night. bullets, RPGs, and over 300 explosions (a friend's mom counted them one by one, then decided it's a good number to stop at, it was getting boring)
bombs or grenades, i have no idea.
very noisy, a bit scary, even if I used to be used to it.


words by to help me pass the night


Defenestraphobia

All I have to do is stay away from windows.
But there are windows everywhere.

All I have to do is keep the children from the windows.
But there are windows everywhere.

All I have to do is listen to explosions
and never hear them come too close.

All I have to do is listen to explosions
and never hear one blow us up.

All I have to do is wait until the morning.
But will the morning make it stop?

All I have to do is fear.
All I have to do is not.
