Break bombs like the sun
Unable to run when the shit goes down
Not a sound as the cloud
Engulfs the sky
A single cry
Before devastation
All of creation wiped away
Before we can say
I love you
Cauterized instantaneous
Nothing remains of us
Stone and ash
Becomes the last
The final landscape
A charred shape
Twisted in grim dance
An expanse littered with
Mortality
Smoldering reality
All we know has become
All that was
All we were
The final cure
Ultimate control
Population withdrawal
Not even a memory
Of you and me
Slightest semblance
To remember us
From the lips of children
Whispered and wondered
Pondered and conjured
No history to study
No physical body
Is left
Behind
Here they’ll find only ghosts
Haunting the host
Cremated planet
Who knew they’d planned it
all along
