Memories
January 11, 2019
Looking back
Back when the grass was green
When the sky was blue
What happened
They came
The fear
It destroyed everything
The land beneath our feet
The air we breath
They took it
Captured us
Only memories of what we had is the only thing we have left
Now lava runs where streams were
Citys repaced with fortresses for them
Skys are now black
They changed our names to numbers
Our home is gone
Memories keep us together
Memories keep us sane
But soon they will make memories tear us apart
They will fade
We will fade
They have enslaved us
Summoning us when needed
We are left in vain
Forgotten
We are left to
Die
