There were cracks through which we saw
The light at which we stared in awe.
The whole creation crumbled to dust,
Tears morphed into metal, metal became rust.
The Angels stepped down and fled at once,
Joining the darkness in its ultimate dance.
And no one noticed in the least
When all of us ceased to exist.
There was nobody to mourn
The Universe, so pained and torn.
Don't think of us, too early yet.
We will meet but you'll forget.
And we'll lament what you can't recall;
That is when the Silence will fall.
