In ruins we see the echo of our pride,
Our unity crumbles, forever divide.
The earth sighs as civilizations fall,
With every passing era, the narrative stalls.
Power and greed, the catalyst of decay,
Hope and virtue, at the altar they lay.
From towering cities to humble dwellings,
The demise of our world, no myth it tells.
Nature gasps, burdened by our human weight,
As harmony shatters, the bond dissipates.
In the fragments of what once stood tall,
A somber reminder that nothing lasts at all.
The arts and sciences may ignite the soul,
But progress unfettered soon takes its toll.
Love and compassion fade into the dark,
In this crumbling world, a painful spark.
Yet even as we witness the world’s demise,
A flicker of hope within us still lies.
For from the ashes, a chance to rebuild,
To learn from errors, to restitch life's quilt.
Through unity and wisdom, we may prevail,
And mend the broken bond, as we unveil.
So let us rise anew, our hearts resolute,
Rekindle the flame, past the despair's brute.
And though our world may crumble, as it may,
The power to change and heal is ours today.
