The Cleansing (Blanket of Death)

By WinterGrave

1:24pm

everyone on this side of the world peacefuly asleep knowing god loves them.....

then a flash!

now starts the death toll....

in this event
evolution was chaos
fires rained down of this earth
as volcanoes protested the quakes
jagged holes appear in the ground
as if the world was paper that the child could tare
water rose miles in the air
cites evaporate in a cosmic spray
flecks of flesh and bone are projectiles
among others
skulls were smashed on walls
walls ripped apart by steel objects
cars decimated against the mountain
life was ended
ashes and dust
faded memories left bare on the earths crust
nothingness as a whole
the sun lost all control
arctic breezes wonder the plain
nothing will ever be the same
the clouds forded over the sky
the dirt was impaled in the atmosphere
a blanket of death
cover the horizon
cites under sea
lost cites under the ocean
we have taken years to search for
laid at our dead feet
this world we lived on
revolted our evolution
now bodes lay molding
corpses bleed dry
bones broken and folding
babes flapping
as the wind starts rasping
skeletons are everywhere
no one lives in this moment of despair
this image of rest
is a graveyard in eternity

1:28....
