Forever Children played in the streets The birds chirped in the trees The wind blew a warm wind, the smell of flowers beginning to bud A cold wind that would never stop The skies darkened over the world Blackness was laying over us This is a day that we will remember The weather turned from warm breeze to a cold chill The earth started to give way The child cried People wept on their front porch The earth opened on this day This day of nothing Today was our judgment day A time to reflect on our past and fight for our future We have not given up We are united together to form one bond A bond of strength for our species An old man died today The candles burned out passionately There was no light Just blackness A sky full of terror among our species Screams and Dreams were shattered on this day The air smelled like a fire was burning all of us Fire shot up through the cracks of hell And then there was a noise A noise that we all had to start a new day A day of love and a day to celebrate life Today we bind together Life will go on Forever
Reason for writing:
I sat at my desk looking for something that I could write about that would make me feel good after it was finished. I had never written anything like this so that feels really good.
Birth sign: Scorpio
