The Apocalypse Of True Love

We submerged ourselves
Into the cold, heavy water
Baptised by microplastics
Your anxious silence
Just like mine
We hoped the poisoned water
Would make our endocrines right
Then you kiss me

I feel the earth quake
I hear guns fire
I see the lights flicker
I hear the sirens shrieking

The roof peeled off
The sky was all storms
You picked up my body
Limbless and thin

I see you naked
Hovering in the air
Tearing down soldiers
Just like paper

(Now we can go home)

The soldiers are screaming
Some try to escape
Their helicopters
Torn out of the air

All of their bullets
Reflect off your skin
I never doubted
You’d come back for me

Now we can go home
Let there be light

And you take me back to the ocean
And we’ll watch the world end
Love alone is all that’s real
We will be reborn
