Thirteen Days

It's been thirteen days since the death of all
God's right hand now smashed to pieces, is all that remains
In the burning wasteland nothing lives
The apocalypse has come

Now hell has arrived
Out of the ash survivors are born on demons wings
Brought back to life from evil
The devil laughs at his victory

Our free will now gone to do the bidding of the devil himself
We are living zombies that walk this burning wasteland called earth
As the next thirteen days pass, life sparks, individuality is born

We wake from a deep slumber, slowly coming to realize

 

Terror sweeps over us as we realize it's just the begining

Our hearts now turned black by the devil, our souls now corrupted

Hope is forgotten and oblivion waits

 

Thirteen days pass, Hope begins anew

We stand up on our own feet

We seek to destory as it is our nature

 

Thirteen days pass, The devil is thrown from his throne

All that remains is us, God is gone and the devil dead

We evolve once again to be the new god

 

Thirteen days pass, We are supreme

We make organism to entertain us

To give us something to do

Thus it all starts over the never ending cycle

 

Thirteen days pass

    The cyclical nature of time is an interesting concept, you depicted it really well. Makes me think of Yeats' The Second Coming.

    I really like this actually. The cyclical nature of the end of the world, doomed to repeat the process over and over, and despite having seen the end of the world already, we create the same set of circumstance and allow the same failures.

    what a stirring circle of power and control this is weaved into a chilling tale of good vs evil and with no animals harmed during its writing. Wonderful WTG Good luck in the contest

    Very interesting write, all the thoughts made me curious to know where this came from. Very vivid imagery and great flow.
