when it had ended
For Kayleigh's, The Story of Humanity Micro-Fiction Challenge
Winner of Kayleigh Fraser's, The Story of Humanity Unofficial Challenge (MAR 2024)
***************************
When it had ended, you finally awoke.
Had there not been sirens? Had there not been smoke?
When it was over, I saw you stand still.
Called me complicit. Had this been my will?
When you first arrived, I sealed shut the doors.
Your world's not my problem. Not anymore.
