All light across the world is fading as darkness slowly moves in. It seems the battle is over, It seems death did win. As I watch the angels plummet from the heavens above. the world is cast in shadow and our race forgets the meaning of love. and the sky slowly turns crimson, water too blood, demons begin to sprout like roses stright up from the mud. as hopelessness begins to settle on us who survived and he who conquered comes to take our lives. with slow tourment until we die with no place now for our soul's to reside. so we cry and I give one last aganizing sigh and whisper goodbye.

I'm a dying romantic and when i can no longer write i can no longer live -Jeremiah Johnson-

Outstanding depiction. Painted very nicely. Good write.

Beautiful sentiments.  Some very powerful lines in there, such as the first two lines and

"hopelessness begins to settle on us who survived"

But, the format became a little confusing near the end especially with the spelling mistakes.  Check your spelling.  

Nice poem!

i thank you all for your replies and i'm sorry about the spelling and format but i'm in the army over here in iraq and when we get to use the internet it's only for 10 minutes. so my writing is kind of rushed. but thanks again
