Drums in the distance
Do you hear them?
Will you hear them?
The songs they sing
The stories they tell
The music they bring
Stories of struggles,
Stories of love
Stories of happiness,
Stories from above.
The sound gets stronger
As the stories get intense
Men telling of wars
Others of lost freedom
Which story is yours?
Is it one of love?
Is it one of happiness?
Is it one of war?
Everyone has a different story
Of where they come from
But it all sounds the same
When it comes from a drum

Reason for writing:
I was at work, and I started making like my desk was a drum, and thats when I thought of "Drums in the distance". Most of my poetry is just from the top of my head. Really, there is no inspiration...just thoughts...
