Carelessness

By Iris

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

The sky bleeds black The earth glows red My eyes are dry I see nothing I hear nothing Silence is the future Life is the past Dreams are forever broken Nightmares reign The world around us crumbles Nothing to be done No sun, no moon, no light Shadows take their place Nothing left to live for Nowhere left to go All is forgotten Lost in the collapse of light Stand alone in the darkness Take in the stench of loss For this may be the future Can you comprehend the cost?
