One day
Time will stop
It will take a final breath
Draw its strength
And crush
Crush everything in its path
Crumble walls and burn lands
Kill life and swallow energy
It has had enough
Of how we waste it
Take it for granted
And weep over it
Enough is enough
It will dominate
Till no living remain
It will be the only thing to exist
All will be still
And time will lose its essence
Desolation
Time has rebelled
