Apocalyptic Waltz

in poem •  6 years ago  (edited)

We dance upon a mountain top
Lift up into the gentle sky
Twirling through the frozen air
Landing on the velvet ground

Let us look away from this
Let us find our frozen sun
Alas, the trees are falling now
Alas, the air has grown so thin

Let's twirl until the sun burns out
And I'll show you a brand new world
Alas, the ground is thawing now
Alas, the sun is all too bright

Let's dance until there's no one left
The burning land that once had hope
Alas, the tides are turning now
Alas, the air is running out

And still we dance and burn our skin
Through the night with grace and love
Alas, the smoke is getting thick
Alas, we dance until we fall
