Humanity
Staring into the sky,
Into the nothingness,
Only clouds are above.
There is only darkness,
It seeps through the clouds,
Black and grey.
Everything's silent,
The world around me is dead.
There is nothing left.
The first drop falls,
It dampens my soul.
It's cold and welcoming,
Like death in this lifeless world.
All I can do is stand there,
Letting the rain soak my body.
I wish it would just wash me away,
All the stains,
On the life I've lived.
Falling backwards,
Breaking the droplets as I lean.
The hard ground welcomes,
As I come crashing down.
The water rises,
And my world is spinning.
Eager for it to turn black.
Humanity, for what it’s done to me,
Will cease.
