The Bomb
The Bomb
In shadows cast by hopeful dreams
A tale of progress, or so it seemed
Where humans sought a brighter day
But turned it dark in their own way
With visions set on great pursuits
They split the atom, resolute
To harness power, a gift divine
Yet darkness lurked within the shine
The nucleus, once tightly bound
Released its force, unchained, unbound
A brilliant flash, a deadly bloom
As lives were lost in fiery gloom
Devastation spread its wings
A legacy of suffering
The core of science, blackened stain
As good intentions turned to pain
And still, we seek the light ahead
To mend the past, where hearts have bled
To learn from errors, strive for grace
And wield our knowledge in embrace
Let not our progress blindly lead
But humbly sow a caring seed
For in our hands, the power lies
To change the world, to heal, to rise
In shadows cast by hopeful dreams
A tale of progress, or so it seemed
Where humans sought a brighter day
But turned it dark in their own way
With visions set on great pursuits
They split the atom, resolute
To harness power, a gift divine
Yet darkness lurked within the shine
The nucleus, once tightly bound
Released its force, unchained, unbound
A brilliant flash, a deadly bloom
As lives were lost in fiery gloom
Devastation spread its wings
A legacy of suffering
The core of science, blackened stain
As good intentions turned to pain
And still, we seek the light ahead
To mend the past, where hearts have bled
To learn from errors, strive for grace
And wield our knowledge in embrace
Let not our progress blindly lead
But humbly sow a caring seed
For in our hands, the power lies
To change the world, to heal, to rise
