Disaster

Out in the park on a warm summer's day
Family love, fanning each other
Basking in the sun
No danger
Clouds roll in
The clouds look angry
Animals panic
Danger ahead
Warning signs were given
Deaf to one's ears
Repetition to the boy who cried wolf
Of the passing weeks
In a sudden there's a tremble
Pace increasing
Family panics
No place to run or hide
Buildings crash down
The road splits in two
Debris rains down
Killing thousands in Kanto
Brave, the father shelters his family
A sacrifice
His children and his wife
Sheltered by his own flesh and blood
