And there he stood
finally piecing all the puzzle pieces together
after 2 years of resenting his „enemy“
without knowing the reason for his doings
all the wars
all the sacrifices
worth nothing
in the daunting and cruel face
of reality
of clarity
of closure
and then it dawned on him
how everything could have been different
how one small action
he saw no evil in
had lead
to all this chaos
to all this suffering
to all this death
too late
and his heart stuttered
and his eyes filled with tears
and his hands shook
and the alarm got louder
run!
and louder
„run!“
and louder
„RUN!“
and
And the sky was blue
and the sun warmed his face
mining trees was important
right?
