May 2018
It was the night as New York City and surrounding areas slept
But it would be a night of a devastation wept
Midnight being the precise hour
New York City and Tri-state started to shake
The citizens didn’t know how to take
This moment there was no time to love and hate
Yet rumbles upon rumbles came even harder
It seemed as if the underground was ready to pop
But it was a fierce Earthquake that wouldn’t stop
Panic throughout the streets
It wasn’t a battle but being defeat
People were running through the streets in Robes, Clothes and even ****
New York City Skyscrapers and apartment buildings were starting to sway back and forth
Any minute all buildings would tumble down
People were shouting ‘REVELATION AND REDEMPTION”
One by one as if they were on cue, buildings started to come down
You could feel the anguish of fear
Destruction surrounded everything that was near
Screams of death while some buildings crushed people
While others simply had a heart attack death
There was definitely no way out
Suddenly destruction no more, and silence came upon
There was no one left being among
The night sky was on schedule
Destruction and devastation only took a second
But the wrath of God was at hand
New York City was now in shambles
A night of the unexpected
Devastation having a cause
People’s hearts having a faux
Everlasting highlighting death’s end
