The Fall/Armageddon

Enter the apocalypse.

Behold!

The burning brimstone lights up the night,

For the paradise gates remain only etched in stone.

Thou seeketh an unflawed world,

Thy dreams remaineth unconquerable;

Even roses hold venomous thorns.

But worry not!

Exile ends when heavens perish,

For no soul keeps watch over chaos.

Thou might ask thyself:

“The skyfall's toll bears no meaning,

For what is existence under the desert sun?”

But the answer lingers within the essence,

As the wounds open upon thy own touch;

The riddle now shifts the broken pieces:

This is the salvation thou have been waiting for.

Armageddon

I think people confuse this as the end....but one must recognize....this could also be a rebirth to a new beginning. That's what I see in your poem, wisdom, despite the fear and chaos. You seem to understand, that sometimes the slate needs to be wiped clean, to hope for a better tomorrow.
