Destruction

Life is a mess.

By EmPublished 6 years ago 1 min read

As I sit here

My mind can't help but wander

Loving and losing

New beginnings branching off of endings

How can something so beautiful come from something so destructive?

They always say rainbows come after hurricanes

But what if one doesn't?

What if nothing happens?

What if everything stays grey and barren?

What if one day everything good comes to an end and we're left with nothing but the aftermath of our own self-destruction?

If destruction is all that's left does that mean humans are the ones to create again?

A new world where everything can begin again?

What if one day every human decides enough is enough and we all live in harmony?

Would that ever be possible?

Everyone's greedy

They all fend for themselves, refusing to help anyone

Everyone's so judgmental

They laugh and make fun of things they don't understand

Maybe one day everything will change

Maybe destruction is what we need

To show everyone

We must change

And create a new world
