When it struck The world shook Glass shattered everywhere Each shard mirroring the vast destruction Buildings crumbled into piles of ruble Painting the blue sky with thick, grey smoke The ever luminous Sun paled Now but a glowing ember Ending this world as we knew it... When it struck The world shook A sweet wind blew It blew until the suffocating canopy of smoke was no more Magnificent trees bloomed from the debris The bits of glass flew into the sky like stars Making eternity their home The Sun burst anew Welcome rays encompass the atmosphere It's warmth making love to my spirit Something wondrous happened here Love... And when it struck... The world shook.
