The darkness seeps across the sun
It over-rides the day
on a wild red horse,
It goes gliding through the skies.

The darkness sets the course
of so much remorse to this gloominess
that overtakes the brightness
with dark clouds rising constantly
in the dark deep emptiness of the lifeless
birds that drop from the trees.

The birds once sang a melody so transcendant
Now they die and stay in the graveyard next
to the children that never had a chance to
run and play.

The world is hazey with so much pollution
that rises up to the heavens
seems that we use to love God's creation
but now we simply throw it on the junk pile
as if the earth will just pretend it never
cared about the garbage it constantly swallows.

Today the skies are gray with so much doom
Yet we do not see what the whales go through
deep below the sea's
So here we see what's only on the surface
but someday the skies will fall with a firey
rage.

The darkness comes with such a force
We have no choice
For the choice was made long ago
when the Earth was tormented with such poisons
and so we now suffer the aftermath.
