I went to the zoo last weekend
It was quite a nice trip
Sun was shining, the day was warm
Nothing seemed amiss

I slowly blinked whilst I watched moving trees
Sitting in a car lulled me
Or atleast left me in a nice daze

I couldn't hear the shouts
I couldn't hear arguments or trickling tears
I was just sleeping lightly
With headphones covering my ears

Then we arrived - all happy and giddy
A zoo! Elephants, giraffes, seals!
Then finished the whole day
By having a hearty meal

I didn't want to go back
Because I felt the tension creeping in then
Oh well, I couldn't change anything
I guess I would see animals shortly again
