Analysis of Thunder

Jelly Bonaobra 2002 (Canaway Malilipot Albay)



Run run run... He keeps on running
as thunder strikes the tree.
His feet seem to float while escaping,
his body was cold and shaking.

He continues to run as fast as he can be,
for he wanted to escape into a horror of reality,
but then a sudden thing happened,
this thunder does not end.

The thunder still running in the air
while the man was eaten by his fear.
Until he realized that his body was left
and only his soul was escaping from death.

And then he realizes
if only he stays where he is
he will be safe and calm,
but it's the end, he's now gone.
