It was the end

The end of a world

They knew it was coming

For war had come

And war destroys all in its way

It was the end

The end of lives

Where only one remained

That of a soldier

It had been the end

For a very long time

But none of them

Had seen it until

It was too late

Now,

Their world was gone

Gone into the void

Gone into the dusts of time

For nothing can last forever

Not even gods

They're here now

Here among us

Making the same mistakes

Fighting the same battles

It is up to us now

They change us,

Even while we change them

Maybe, even dare to hope,

It will be the end

The end of war
