I’m not gonna sit here and watch my people die just for the sake of

‘Being Safe’

Safe doesn’t feel safe anymore 

It feels like a guess

It feels like a test

It makes me feel useless, as though I get enough rest

My brothers

My sisters

Crying themselves to sleep

Because even we can’t make a single peep

We wait and wait for that dreadful beep, 

because our symbol of peace gets as much sleep as we

 So no, safe doesn’t feel safe anymore  

It’s just reassurance until we drop to the floor
