Spoiler
Inspired by the song Mad World by Tears for Fears.


She stands in the darkness,
Counting, pacing.
Ticking the time down,
Waiting, Wailing.
As it all falls before her eyes,
Apathetic, Expected.

Her eyes open again and she
Fears, Inevitable.
Pacing commences and the vision
Begins the Ending.

The Earth trembles beneath her feet,
Screams, Sorrow.
As mankind loses the Armageddon she
Stares, Knowing.

this is a very good poem.. .my only question would be, what is it that she knows? but otherwise, fantastic job, and keep writing!
"And when you're out there,
without care, yeah,
I was out of touch!
But it wasn't because I didn't know enough,
I just knew too much."



I just write poetry to throw my mean callous heartless exterior into sharp relief. I’m going to throw you off the ship anyway.
