Title: Realization

---

Under the old oak tree,
My love said she would return,
But only for one occasion:
When the world begins to burn.

As I wait for the bombs to fall,
I make only one call,
To my love, my only friend,
Hoping this will not be my end.

When the flash is seen,
And the boom is heard.
I only now realize,
She will not return.
