All that remains is darkness
Joy and laughter faded away
Hope a distant prayer
Dreams go unanswered
Yet
When the chaos calms
The world pauses
When silence descends
We can find peace

You nailed this! Your poem read so well forwards and in reverse, with two distinct meanings! Loved your poem!
Fantastic poem!
