Thunder and Lightning

by Tash - Pisces

Lightning strikes
And hits the earth
In that quick second;
A baby's birth

Thunder crashes 
and awakens me
As someone else
Is put out of their misery

Lightning strikes
and thunder crashes
As an abused child
recieves deep gashes

Problems occur
as the world goes round
The next thing you know
something has hit the ground

Lightning strikes 
A mother cries, "It's a boy!"
As another woman
has made the wrong choice.

Thunder crashes
and it rolls
As a murderer's anger
Takes its toll

Not everything's right
Nor is everything wrong
But in a quick second
Everything could be gone

Reason for writing:

    its the truth
