Blaring

Blaring

The alarm sounds.

My panicking heart's beat

Increases

With every sound

I must escape

I must escape

I must escape

But

I stare back

The ones I love

Are still trapped.

Between the flames

Stand us.

Trapped by the flames

Of society.

I question whether

I should choose the

Attention filled path ahead

Or save

the simple life at home.
