There'll Come Soft Rain

Jal

We watched as those clouds grew

That thunder is all too near

Feel the heat as it'll soon grow cold

As the sun will break clear

Mans perfect storm

 

They said we were safe

Under their ever-present gaze

But as those bolts struck down

And pierced with radiated blaze

I never trusted those big wigs anyways

 

All too soon did we fall

Out of time, I suppose

Great countries take their share

With nothing left to show

All while the mushrooms grow

 

But I had hoped, deep down

That it would all be okay

That, maybe, we'll unite

For the sake of another day

Naive as always

 

It matters not, for its done

And with barely left to say

Soon we're going back home

And as this sun will take us away

There'll come soft rains

  • Comment from author about the poem: I know not of where this world is going, but as tensions grow across the world and threats get thrown around carelessly, it makes me wonder if I\\\'ll see those horrible warnings for the first and last time in the near future. Tomorrow isn\\\'t guaranteed. Make every moment as precious as the last.
