Music rains from the heavens

Angels and Demons

Clinging together

Holding hands

the end of time

Realization dawns

too late, but not

Nothing ever ends

eternity reigns

perspective’s change

The light shines

darkness hastens

love matters

politics die

bombs glow

cleansing begins

here is now

revolution of life
