failure

I stood there
feet firmly planted
on the ground,
floating in mid-air.
As I stood there
I watched the world explode before me
though I had no love for it
I will not miss it.
Reminiscing about the freckles
on her face
and my failure
to see them.
We failed the human race.
I destroyed the trust
the children and animals
had in me
Do I care?
Yes... No... Well, sort of
We failed myself
and her
although
she never loved
us
