Before the Bombs Drop



Oh brothers, how many have died and how many more will die.

We stand together to witness the end and taste the burned ash of a million victims, floating in the sky.

Oh brothers, do I wish we succeeded in life.

Do I wish we could have finished what men had begun and taken a step, a real step towards

a better future, a peaceful world.

That we made men love each other and stand together in all evil face of death.

That we would have done what great men did in the past, and accelerated real growth of mankind.

Carrying our children and children’s children to a place above the shadows, where eternal sunshine always shines! 

Where clouds only rise to paint a picture of beauty on top of our heads, humbly taking the vastness of the sky. And at night, when it’s cold and dark, find hope in the stars.


I wish we could have done any of that!

I wish we could have loved!

Loved all people!

Hate only hate itself,

Fear only fear itself!

Stand tall, stand straight, strong and smart together.

With kindness and understanding and trust.


I wish we could have remembered the safe love of being a child.

One that could never be damaged.

That would never do wrong, on no one at all.

Only so we wouldn’t have to see the disappointment in a loving mother’s eye.


But it’s too late for any of that now. All are going to die!


What did we argue about?

What was all that screaming for?

Why did we cause all that pain on those we could have loved?

I wish we didn’t but standing with all my brothers I used to hate, witnessing mankind’s last moments alive, I understand, and only understand now:

We could have never loved each other.

We could have never gotten rid of pain, of suffering, of evil in our minds, poisoning our hearts.

We all forget that child that was innocent and free.

We kill it ourselves. Cut its throat and feast on its blood.

Sacrificing it to the world that sickens our veins to live a life we never wanted, but are going to defend until the ending of time!


There is no hope and there never was.

There is only life, randomly exploring, surviving and reproducing and competing.

And life has always done so and the life we know will always do so and there is only love and

unity, trust and understanding now, because we all know it’s the end of life.


Would we survive, oh brothers, I know, we would see people fight again, hate again, steal and salvage, and let pure evil corrupt our souls.

And I repeat, there is no hope and there will never be!


But there must be hope!

For you!

Me and my brothers will die on this rock and not a bird will fly when life will cease.

But you, my friend, you can see! You must see! And you must change!

The one that can save us all, is the one who can see all pain, who can truly see all the evil in the world, but overcome!

Let hardship never break him, but fuel his drive.

The one who can see it all and kill his ego, walk through the fire, then rise from the ashes, to show all people that it can be done.

And love will grow and trust will surpass fear and one day evil and hatred can become nothing but a memory of what humanity could overcome.

After conquering the whole planet, they managed to conquer themselves.


You heard me say there is no hope, but as long as you believe, hope is real.

Hope is real for the one who can survive the fire.

And all those who are still alive, can survive the fire.

Those that are still alive, for that blink of time they will continue to live, they have hope.

And hope is what will carry us to the place beside the stars.

Until we finally realize, the only real enemy we have ever been facing, is the dark end that takes all our consciousness.

And as long as there is hope, we can even beat that.

As long as there is hope, no one has to die.
