Desolate

It was dark, there was no light The streets were desolate, except for me I looked before, I looked after me But nothing could be seen. Only desolation.... A world where there was no soul, A world where there was no sound, Miles and miles I walked aimlessly Without meaning or purpose. Around me buildings stood tall, Some of them had started to fall, They were battered by bullets, shattered by them In a ghastly, grotesque state were they. I looked around in utter despair Pools of blood stained the ground Hands and feet lay here and there The sight was unbearable A desolate, deadly world.... I looked at it and sighed; So this ought to be our pride! The world we often talk of Beset with the best technology. I laughed in scorn at the world, Humans! See your glorious fate! A world which you are craving for Would end up in this state! Desolate...
