The Aftermath

I was not informed

I was not made aware

Of what horrors lie above us

In the blacked air

Emerging for the vaults

Of which we have dwelled

The ruin of our nation

Piercing with despair

Emptiness consumes you

The ruins here you can't deny

They're dying in pain

I simply can't explain

Loss of words can't think straight

All life here is gone

I simply can't explain what has become

The aftermath

Tearing from the blindness of the outer light

The rays of sun have robbed me of my sight

Only for a moment I am horrified

Everything is clear now

I must survive

Emptiness consumes you

The ruins here you can't deny

They're dying in pain

I simply can't explain

Loss of words can't think straight

All life here is gone

I simply can't explain what has become

The aftermath

The ruins lie in darkness

The air is blacker than my soul

The stench of rotting corpses

The bones are proof of pure demise

The sun is covered for a moment

Panic is what you see

Ground is breaking where you stand

Nowhere you can be

Tidal waves black out the skies

Frozen by fear before you run

Fires that burn all that lives to the ground

There's no escaping demise

Nowhere to go

Nowhere to hide

The aftermath

A dystopian fear
