I wake up to the short chirps of birds, He wakes up to gunfire and terror.

I go to school with no fear,
He goes to school in fear of the secret.

I speak my mind freely at recess,
He keeps it quiet hoping not to let anything out.

I think about what my parents are doing,
He is hoping to see his parents when he gets home.

When I get home I start conversation,
When he gets home there is complete silence.

I play X-box to relax with my brother,
He hopes that nobody tells their secret.

I go to bed hoping for an amazing new day,
He goes to sleep hoping to be alive in the morning.

The reality of those children facing war.Say No to War.
