ONY ME. - ARMAGEDDON

Your day begins as normal
Routine and the odd chore,
You’ll pop into town with a friend
But are oblivious as to what’s in store.

You’ll grab up your bargains
And groceries too,
When a sudden chill
Comes over you.

The fresh breeze that was
Has now turned to gales,
You find yourself clinging
To the nearest rails.

You hold on for your life
But you can’t help but see,
The sheer chaos and mayhem
And so much debris.

Through all of this
You can still hear the screams,
Of people like you
Who don’t know what this means.

Buildings so strong, totally destroyed
Uprooted trees just blown away,
It’s at this point you find yourself
Religious or not really starting to pray.

The thunder’s so loud
The lightening, so bright,
Then the skies open up
And oh what a fright.

For, loud enough
For the world to hear,
Comes a voice from above
That fills you with fear.

Amid all the panic
You look for your friend,
But I’m afraid you’ll find
She met her end.

You question yourself, why her not me
But it matters not what you do or say,
I’m afraid that you’ve just witnessed
What is known as Judgement day.

Suddenly everything goes silent
And oh, so eerily still,
Just thank God you’re a survivor
Who obviously did his will.

ONY ME.
