Last of the days
The sun is dead
The grass is gone
Air and sky are full of red
Forever on the brink of dawn
Clouds are grey
Leaves have dried and fell to the ground
Not a living soul can stay
Nothing has produced sound
The flowers fall and cry
As life is being sucked away
Even to the final fly
With no a second of delay
A bolt of lightening
Crashing sound of thunder
So powerful and frightening
Yet no existence can even wonder
Sea's are so still
The wind has died today
Nothing left to kill
As earth appears to die away
Silence fills the day
Nothing flying, no vehicles driving
Because today is judgement day
No time for fear and dying
It happens all too fast
No dreaming, no screaming
Nothing is built to last
Do we all know the final result and its meaning?

Clouds are grey
Leaves have dried and fell to the ground - (This line is a little long due to the last stanza, always try to tie them in to match if you can, it creates a rhythm rather than conventional rhyme.)
Not a living soul can stay
Nothing has produced (a) sound.
The flowers fall and cry
As life's been sucked away
Even to the final fly
has no second of delay
A bolt of lightning
that crashes around the thunder
is so passionate, so frightening
yet no existence can even wonder
Sea's are still so still
The wind has died away
Nothing's left to kill
As Earth appears to weaken and fray
Silence fills the day
Nothing flying, no vehicles driving
Because today is judgement day
No time for fear and dying
It happens all too fast
No dreaming and no screaming
Nothing is built to last
Does anyone know the final meaning?
