Ruin

I am the rubble left behind

from a fortress built from stone.

Impregnable. Unbreakable. Broken.

I am the bodies floating on the frozen ocean,

All the remains from the greatest ship ever built.

Unsinkable. Lost beneath the waves.

I am the shattered pieces of a

priceless thousand-year-old statue.

The ash-preserved city of Pompeii.

I am the places and the people

that thought they would never fall.

I am me. I am you.

I am Ruin.
