Rain
|

by MEL-. a gloomy outlook of the world.

hunger strikes
famine is a shadow looming overhead
beyond the golden fields of harvest
dreams turn into a drought

what if?
what if it never happened?
if the seas didn't pour over
and the earth didn't crumble
and press you down?

can the rain cleanse it all?
can the pain just go away
in a matter of years?

what if we are soon to be forgotten?
in this miraculous downpour
the sinners gladly rejoice

to claim the rights they think they deserve
to murder, to hunt down,
to make the innocent suffer

because nothing will ever be enough
face it -
we're drowning in this thunderstorm
a graveyard dug for future generations.
