I shouldn't terrified that someone will kill me,

I shouldn't be scared that my family will suffer,

I shouldn't be frightened that people I care about will turn up dead,

But I am,

I'm scared of  the hate and the pain,

I'm scared for humanity,

I'm scared about a gun in at my head,

I'm scared for a bomb on the bus,

I'm scared for the colored,

I'm scared for the females,

I'm scared for the males,

I'm scared for anyone in between,

I'm scared for people who have thoughts,

I'm scared for those who love,

I'm scared for the religious,

I'm scared for humanity.

There is so much hate, 

So much pain,

So much sadness,   

That its hard to hear,

The calls of joy,

The ringing bells,

That do not search the melancholy,

But sound with noises like summer days,

However, they are muffled by the blackness.

I wish I had more courage,

To stand up and fight,

But to waste a day in endless peril,

Is almost to much.

It had been a blackened revolution,

Darkened by our own impending darkness,

Yet here we are,

Pushing forward,

And using our very last breath,

To fight for the courage,

To win.

I shan't be scared,

No I'll find the courage,

To rise above sea level,

To brighten the horizons,

Yet I have no idea how a child can do that.

Wait, I have a plan,

I can be the newspaperman,

Sending out cranes,

And starting up my campaign,

And bring the world to a start,

And not let it fall apart,

And stop an impending hurricane,

With my Paper Cranes.
