How could they have done this
To the Planet that gave them life
As Mother Nature admits defeat
Drowning the world in a solitary tear
As the Sun breaths it last breathe
Giving a blast of golden sunlight
As the heart of the world stops beating
And silence falls across the land
The Angels now broken and weary
Ascend mournfully toward Heaven's gate

'As the heart of the world stops beating
And silence falls across the land'
What a mesmerizing phrase there, both sentences fall together perfectly and captivating.
Thanks for entering,

This style is well-fitted to your somber subject, very sad and almost hopeless, the message is clear.
