Radiance fills the sky

Feeling despair

Barren land covered in dust from the fallout

Contaminated air

Time-eaten and worn

This is where we strand

Stillness hides atrocities created at my hand

Waken from a slumber

Fearing the light of day

The rise, the fall, the cries of all

The unknown calls

Guilt-ridden

Sleep eludes me

Wallowing in depths of shame

I am the arbiter of this device

Blind eyes are staring

Avoiding their sight

My hands guided the incision

Lament my deeds

Waken from a slumber

Fearing the light of day

The rise, the fall, the cries of all

The unknown calls

The sky is lit by the hate of man
