This World: WWIII

The end of days while this world
Is burning all around us. I cannot
Take the fact that I am curled

Up here while blood might clot
And the fire will dry up this
Place that loses its spot

In this universe. Undying bliss
And happiness is no longer
Possible. Give me one last kiss

Before the poison gets stronger
And kills us all. The heavy burden,
And the rise of boiling anger

Comes to the surface. The curtain
Has been pulled back when you see
That it is World War III. The garden,

Once beautiful, can no longer be
Saved and replanted on this vast
Landscape. Even the once tall tree

Cannot grow. Nothing would last
Forever anymore. Everything is
Burning too quickly and fast.

Everything will fade and fizz
Out. People are too caught up
In themselves and the biz.
