“A Nightmare” (Australian Fire)
A nightmare so scary
The night is no more starry
My heaven is burning
The sorrow is returning
Their tears are falling
Like crystals, they’re bawling
My heart is so melting
My people are sweating
Our home sweet homes
Our loved ones are unknown
The bush we had is now fire
Our suffering is now higher
The pure sky once we had
The smoke is torturing it now so bad
Our bridge for me is symbol of love
And now it’s hidden, smoke is above
The news was love once entire
But now it’s titled “Australian Fire”
Our species were once full of joy
And now their happiness is destroyed
The Twitter is full of hashtag “fire”
Open the tag and you’ll be crier
What you’ll see these days driven
Is the ambulance on with siren
Our sky is as red as the blood
Our dust is now a bloody mud
All I mentioned above is still less
To describe how much my heart badly aches
Dear Australians,
Nightmares are not for-ever
But we Aussies are always together
This nightmare will come to an end
And our Heaven will surely rise again💚
