i wrote this after watching a video about the movie When the Wind Blows. i immedeatly became fascinated by the idea of loving someone so much even though both of you are dying.

YouTube Video About Nuclear War (After When the Wind Blows)
By Lee Levine

The children burnt
to a crisp
Crying out for their
Mothers,
The mothers crying out for their fathers
Do you know how deep the ocean
Was?

My skin is falling off of my bones and
I love you more than anything
Oh, sister,
Oh, brother,
Why was it dropped?
The same word we use for
Microwaves
Has caused millions to die
Acid rain and
A river of blood
Why have we been forsaken?
We can get married
In the fallout shelter
It doesn’t matter,
I love you despite
The fact that
You’re rotting away

Hi,havent seen this. But guessing it is a form of an apocalypse movie. Or such types sci-fi where you are shown the repercussions of bad policy actions from around the world endangering public life. Hopefully it has a social message guiding and inspiring folks towards peace and away from hatred and spiteful thinking. Loving another fellow citizen and by live and let live attitude. Your poem speaks of love even when the person is dying. It is humanity and forgiving.
