Burning WorldA Poem by ThoctarWhat will happen when this world comes to an end?Burning World
As we look around at
The world we once loved
And see the fire, see the death
And we see the end
The hills are burning
The fire is advancing
And as the wall draws closer
What do we do?
Waves of searing heat
Cruelly eviscerating the beautiful land
Nothing but a wasteland left
In this once beautiful valley
Here we are
The last survivors
Of a race that once controlled and dominated
The last vestiges of humanity
And we look at each other
Knowing soon we will perish
We shall never look upon this world together
And as we commence with our final act….
Darkness replaces this burning world
It has all faded into the darkness
