The Day Things Were Different

Pain slashes across my skin, nothing I haven’t seen. . .

Fire rages all around, losing my last sight of green

But today everything seemed different; fires more powerful than before

More thudding fall of trees - no oxygen anymore

The boiling tongue of fire will lick the world away

Everything seems so vehement - the world is starting to decay

There is something in the distance - something menacing and cruel

Am I the only one to see it? Why are you such a fool?

Something we have fretted for long; something dreaded and feared

But I’m afraid to say the end is here and all life has disappeared

Scientists have made predictions; they even made a day!
But who would have thought it would come so quickly; the world has been led astray!

Looks like this is the end for me, my grass is turning to ash

All the streams are now dried up, looking like a painful gash

Oceans becoming lava, inhospitable for life

The only thing that caused relief, now only causing strife

You thought it was a joke, even entertainment!

Well here it is I am suffering; enjoy, but you are dead; not here to make the statement

Watch all the movies you want but it will never slow

The death of the world which is now and there is nothing you can do to stop it.
