The Final Day

Sanidhya Oli 2006 (Reno)

Free verse
Tomorrow is not promised, my dear
So let us be near
As our final days are to come
And there will be no sun

How I have loved you, dear
Although we can't be near
As I awaken
To the world shaken

My world is you
Yet, it's been turned
Upside down
"Till death do us apart" I said
On our lovely wedding day

Now, it's finally here
And I have nothing to say
Except "I love you"
On our final day

About this poem

I wrote this poem for my AP English Literature class, and the context behind it is that an asteroid is about to hit Earth in 6 months and will wipe out the human race.
