A good friend who stays clear from sunlight Paid me a visit in her fullness one night Eyes heavy with sorrow And tear-stained parched skin She waned and bemoaned the evil of man The earth will be gone she whispered to me No longer a home to roam and be free Fading slowly to the darkest of black Not the brightest of stars could make her glow back Upon waking I searched for light from on high Only to find sun’s light melting Purging streams of heat from out of the sky Smoked filled shells yesterday we called homes Lay broken and empty children left all alone No moon to glow or sun to shine Earth stopped rotating Man has run out of time
