Apocalyptic Prophecies

Shadow in the dark,
Force in the night;
Carnal desires,
Secrets transpire.

Houses are ablaze,
Walking in a foggy haze,
As the ashes burn,
And the world fades,
The embers fall like snowflakes.

The distilled distance
A jaded existence;
The ash turns to dust,
Looking back nonplussed.

I burn the bridges to salvation,
Suffering from the incineration;
The prophet arrives,
Proclaiming only the strong survive.

An obligatory response,
A beguiling smile,
A look of nonchalance,
Questioning his presence.

The guilty have been condemned,
The world shall rise again;
The prophet leaves with these last lines,
As I stand waiting for the end of time.
