CATASTROPHE

catastrophe

By Poems Published 3 years ago 1 min read

Catastrophe, a word that brings fear

A shadow that looms, so dark and so near

It strikes without warning, a blow to the soul

Leaving destruction, and a toll so whole

It shatters the peace, and tears down the day

Bringing chaos, in its relentless way

It leaves in its wake, a path of despair

A trail of broken hearts, beyond repair

But in the midst of it all, a glimmer of hope

A light that shines, a way to cope

For in the face of adversity, we find strength

And rise up, to rebuild what was lost in length

Oh catastrophe, a test of our will

A challenge to rise, and climb that hill

For in our resilience, and our unwavering fight

We show the world, that we'll be all right.
