Apocalypse

The end of an era,
The end of the time.
Willl it begin all over?
Will our lives be over? All nine?

From The Gulf to Korea,
And from Germany to Judae,
Wars have destructed,
Wars have destroyed,
Wars have ruined,
And wars have joined.

Lives have been broken,
Yet re-united again.
We are at a race against time, Will the human race win?

Time is short,
A year passes in a minute.
Self-annihilation is a problem,
The end of the world is imminent.

The rain-forest being desolated,
With all of the smoke in the air.
We can't forget the largest problem,
The disappearing ozone layer.

When will the apocalypse be?
In a day or three?
Or will we have longer?
Perhaps not even in our time.
To see the world enter, a stage of divine.

So many reasons,
So many not even before told.
When will life disappear?
And the world enter a stage of cold.
