Derelict Earth

Below the Empty Skies
I watched the world I loved ravaged by its madness,
My orphaned, widowed peers devastated in distress...
Only remorse remains after the hysteria,
Aftermath of a self-inflicted euthanasia.
Rapture came before the seventh seal was opened,
Man proved its inept potency through cosmocide,
All the once underlying abjection awakened,
Leading to an absolute, pervasive divide,
Families imbrued their hands in one another's blood,
Their innocence was among casualties of war,
Even before the shredded bodies dragged by the flood,
Repugnant heaps of bloated corpses and scattered gore...
Centenarian cities fell to ruins in seconds,
Forests turned to cinders as the only backgrounds,
Birdsongs went silent for the nations' threnody
As the problem turned into its own remedy...
Darknesses were cast over the kingdom of men,
Prudish shroud covering our shameful misdeeds,
All alone, mankind banished itself from heaven,
Set ablaze by the confrontation of all creeds,
Creation of a deity adamant to our cries,
As we overstepped our bounds and triggered Doomsday,
Left forlorn in our end, our god averted his eyes,
Its angels took all our beloved and flew away,

We were left to stay below the now empty skies...
As nothing is above, there is nothing below,
No omnipotent essence to blame for our woe,
Humanity bears the responsibilities,
We, on our own, reached these abject extremities.
Finally reaping what has been gradually sown,
As we endeavored to usurp the divine throne,
Self-proclamed coronation at highest spheres
Haughty tyrants, impostors submerged by their fears.
Biting avidly in the once forbidden fruits,
Digging deeper into our malevolent roots,
Bringing back to life shameful ghosts from our past,
Memories of a savagery we lambaste,
Seeking refuge behind deceptive motives,
Easing torments with religious palliatives,
Desensitized to the upcoming upheaval,
Worshipping the lord while becoming the devil...
Waging wars in which nobody was victorious,
Forgoing humanity to become barbarous,
Leaving behind what we fought for in their graves,
Forsaking all forms of hopes, virtue of slaves...
