End Of Time
What could go wrong when a tyrant becomes king?
he sits on a throne,
proud and powerful.
the kingdom, all his own.
he stands at the podium, hands high,
he speaks,
and not a dry eye.
The voice of an angel,
with the mind of the devil,
his words ring throughout, proud and powerful.
no one dares defy the king, his mighty,
all bow down,
mindful or flighty.
quietly, he shuts all possible opposition down,
from unexplainable death,
to making them the talk of the town.
he never addresses the brave,
the few,
those who do not love him too.
whispers abound as
more wars start,
that maybe their dear king hasn’t a heart.
he starts to take notice, and his tactics are no longer effective
to convince the kingdom
that they are not just his collective.
his words ring throughout the land,
but this place is starting to see,
beginning to understand.
the death, the power,
the cloth over their eyes,
up in his tower,
the king tells more lies.
there’s no turning back
nor should there be.
this kingdom is really starting to see.
he tries and tries
and finds no avail.
seems his wicked ways have finally sent him to hell.
they carry him out of his castle, distraught.
execution is a lesson he wishes
he was never taught.
the kingdom has no leader now
the revolution has begun
the king is out and
the people, they have won.
