A Better World

By Jasmin Gutierrez

Black colors the sky
Raindrops conquer the city
Quintessence
They all stay in

An empty soul takes a step
Towards the hollow darkness
Some perceive it and follow
They saunter
In search of light

Tick Tock
Tick Tock
Time flies by

At last
Light burns
The heat is inevitable
They rise
Towards nothingness
Yet a magical place
Where you can feel no pain

A burst of bliss
As a better world
Awaits them
