Done

Light cracks a darkened sky

The heavens give a booming sigh

Trees crash, homes lost

All ready to count the cost

All sways in earthly breath

None ever to anticipate death

Rocking in earth's ebb and flow

All ready to come and never go

Electric shock open eyes

As quick as given energy dies

Corpse rotting, giving back

Returning what we did lack

Endless cycle life goes by

Living in perpetual sigh

Cycle broken through no return

Old in years never to learn

Wisdom eluding selfish eyes

Truth evading wishful lies

irreparable life living

Never leaving worth giving

Cycle ending death in sight

Of all that's good all that's right

Oh where are eyes that may see

What we are becoming to be

All having two but seeing none

I'm sorry to say soon we're done
