The Bombs Fall

Story by chippysbud2 on SoFurry

, , , , , , ,

this is based on a nightmare i had.


sirens begin, the war has gone viral

peace comes to end, planes start to spiral.

shouts of the soldiers, anger and passion

death on the watchtower, a militant fashion

the bombs fell slow, on this cold morning.

the city aglow, alight with their warning.

people run terrified, fear in their hearts.

screams pierce the silence, all order departs.

i walked to the center, no feel of terror.

one missile falling, no sight of error.

arms to the cross, i await this finale.

prayers of the lost. cross the death valley.

chants of the wicked, cries for their saviour

fear of hell, regrets of behaviour.

silence consumes, down comes the curtain.

the clock bell booms, our ending is certain.

iron strikes earth, the sky is on fire.

the city burns bright, the world is our pyre.

the echoes die out, the screams are no more.

the lights are all gone, the end of this war.
