CLOSED BOOK

Your rock is
Beginning to crumble
Your foundation
Will soon be no more
How will you handle
The disintegration
Will you eat an apple?

I'm only human
Whatever that means
I want to believe
In something more
But just believing
Is a closed book

While the children sleep
The madmen work
Building their doom machines
Who are we
Trying to destroy
But ourselves

In the beginning
What a lovely thought
That something can begin
Was it something
That I said?
No, it couldn't be
I wasn't around
At the beginning
