It's finally happening
The day that we dread
The day where humanity becomes vicious,wild animals
The day when all hope is lost
The day when there is no light to be found
And no happiness to go around
No music,No bliss,No pleasure and No laughter
Just the quite crying of 5 year old boys
And the despair on their parent's faces
As they huddle around each other watching
Watching everything they've worked for go in a flash
Just like the superhero
But there was no superheroes only villains
And little Timmy knows that as the day
The day the bombs fall
The Day it Finally Happens
