The Unread Letter To You

This isn't the end
I refuse to believe
If it was why am I writing
Something no one will receive,

When the ash clouds descended,
When the lightening destroyed
They told us 'write letters'
We couldn't avoid.

The stories surround,
Love ones flock,
Everyone bids fair well
To our condemned little rock.

Three days they have promised
Until the final bow,
But if that is true-
How are you reading this now?

You may read others like this
If our fate does come true,
If it happens to us-
It could happen to you.

You cannot unread
What I've told you today,
Like the elephant in the room
It will always stay.

I'm writing to no one
Because either way,
These letters will never again-
See the light of day.
