It all started as a tiny wish
So far-fetched, with hardly any chance of happening
It was every child's dream once
The thought of it was simply baffling
I want to time travel, I holler
But my hopes were getting smaller and smaller
But one day, it happened
And it caught me off guard
My eyes flashed open one day, in a different land
My heart pumped in my chest and I clasped my clammy hands
Where am I? I glanced about the particular place
The heat draining my energy, sunlight beating down on my face
I looked around, perplexed, hoping for attention
But no one glanced in my direction
What a treacherous place, I thought
Hopelessness filled every ounce of my being.
Chaos littered the world, war raged in all directions, like for instance
The cannons firing in the distance
I want to go back, back when there's no war
But unfortunately, you get what you wish for
