A Single Flame
A Single Flame Trinity Preston, 2019
The Flame in the air
Burns in great despair
As the people inside have moved
From a life beyond repair.
As the flame spreads
Life as we know it, is dying off
As our loved ones suffered
Being caught in the flame, all alone
But you will all fly like angels
And die like warriors
Just because your lost
Doesn’t mean you can’t be found
But every time I turn, to look around
I see your face clear, In the distinguished ashes
I see the rock, and brick building
Scattered, all over 86th Street
I see the famous coffee shop where we
Dared to meet,and I think about our memories
As I see the sweet sensational ocean shore
I realize that without you, there It’s all a bore
It soon begins to rain, then I think about
The pain,from the single flame, that started and burned it all
As I look in the mirror In see,what can only be
What In wish, could have saved your life
I could have warned you
But I chose not to
Due to sleep depriving emotions
Due to isolating pain, This is what I call love
Love is hope for the rest
With faith tattooed on your chest
Knowing that you will not fail
Love is laughter, memories
Much like the stars in the sky
As the chemtrail chemicals help us slowly die
The spread of fire and chemicals will kill us
Natural disaster will leave the human race
Fortunately in dust
All of our oxygen deprived
Waiting to see the ground again
Knowing that, what might happen
That the earth could die in the end
The world is one big flame
As I light it over and over again
I watch it flicker on and off like a light switch
And with a switch, means power
Which increases by the hour
The pattern repeats with deaths of many people,
By a single flame
Maybe this time around the fire will tame
We may be able to start over again,
From whatever remains, left of the 21st century
Human race
The last petal drops from off of a flower
The last tree drops within the hour
Their is nothing left but dirt and rock
No more rivers,boats,or a harbor dock
No more humanity as we know it
The world is now cold, quiet and bleak
Now I stare down these empty streets
While your lying their soulless and weak
Everywhere there are puddles of blood and bones
They tell me to stop like orange construction cones
As the silences is deafening
And the wind is humming while whistling
This is beginning to seem malice
I approach what I thought was shelter to shield me
Then I seen about a million dead bodies. So my footsteps quickly recede
Only then does the sky start to bleed.
The human race has now concluded due
To this cryptic future that the earth will soon possess
As this malevolent force shadowing
Over our old earth. The human race is dead and was slayed
Much like a dragon
There are no secrets in this new world
It’s only the beginning, But I know that
The human race is fragile but very willing
From the flame that dropped this septic
Disaster from the skies peculiarities and
To think that nobody even noticed the
Seclusion of earth in the first place.
But I look back before I die and I
Realize that the fault of earth is in
Your hands. The fate of earth is your fault
All along. I didn’t expect for this to end…..end this way
Sorry isn’t acceptable because if that was the case,
You wouldn’t have killed the human race.
You sat there and watched earth burn
To the ground. You were the only person
That I trusted in the first place but I
Wrote this poem out of pain and haste
So that you could get a taste of what
A lifeless scene looks like. This poem
Will hopefully make you think. Think about
What could happen any day,not what could happen now
You only care when It’s time for fate
To decide where your going and when your going.
Hopefully you have listened to this warning the end of humanity
Started with a single flame
As the last star has fallen from the sky as the
Meteors strike, we have no choice
But to die. As I glance In the distance the giant fireball sent from our sins,
I realize that in the end your the only one that wins
My tongue touches the roof of my mouth one last time,
I use my last breath to speak the unspoken
“As the silence is deafening,and the wind is humming while whistling”
Before the fireball knocks all the fire out of me
It’s suddenly clear to see
That the edge of humanity
Was never meant to be stopped
We were supposed to die suddenly
I hope you have read this poem
without, pain and depression
That’s not the message, It’s more of an unanswered question.
