Cthaeh

today I caught myself thinking about the world.
about how the world's coming to an end.
about how men's insanity is burning every single leaf up.

and amongst all this rage and madness,
between the flame and flesh consuming each other
as all the world is on fire,

I saw life.
I noticed kindness.
I felt love.

yes, we're all dying, Sophie.
but that's the point of it all.
it's the something else making mankind as special as it is.

we are doomed to failure.
yes, we are indeed.
but why would that change anything at all?

if the house is on fire
if the floor is on fire
if the roof is on fire

it means the flame is coming from the inside.

so as everything turns into dust
smile, laugh and dance
'til your legs and face can no longer be.

ashes to ashes.
