While talks of peace persisted,
The gunfire slowly desisted
'Til nary a shell
Was left when it fell
And the world no longer existed.
They said it was done in protection,
But from whom, dare I ask, in reflection?
It seems we're in danger
Of ourselves, not a stranger,
And our excuses face neither direction.
Now dear Eden, once so green and growing,
Lies burnt with its insides showing,
Yet it's beautiful how
Even God's made to bow
Beneath mankind, damned and unknowing.

Nice thoughts and good presentation.
This part confused me quite a bit though
"And the world no longer existed.
They said it was done in protection,"
I wonder who are 'they' and how did 'they' survive to present their excuse, and who are they giving an excuse to? |
