    ignite, expressions, upsurge, nightmare, harmony

    Explanation:

    One sun rose on us today and ignited over our shores,

    a story told by our silent expressions moving behind windows.

    each one yawning to life, upsurging into our day:

    "I have a nightmare" we keep dreaming,

    the harmony of footsteps, guitars, and screeching subways,

    The thesaurus makes us identify the simpler words and make the poem look easy or the intensity of the words can also be changed to make it high sounding.
