Imagine a space of nothingness Like a long sleep without dreams Devoid of recollection A moment of absolute peace Yet ironically your unable to experience it Such a splendor A bright though also dark moment Even so you wouldn't know right? So which should be perceived Is this what war is fought for? Religion and exploration? Are they for nought or pure curiosity? This blood soaked earth is all that remains A past that will be blanketed in silence Along with our consciousness Or a long ascending message of warning So that if we do descend into a darkness A message has at least been passed to warn a silly world Bent on repeating itself Do we as people feel in sync to this land Can we consider our planet a whole? Maybe the world just needs that moment of blissful silence?
