Curse of the Chernobyl

It was at midnight

When this all happened.

I was musing

In my own fantasies

When something bright

Exploded all the sudden.

It was at midnight

When everything was burned.

I was dancing

In my own realities

When a light

Bursted out all the sudden.

It was at midnight

When many people died.

I didn't realize

That my beloved was there

When something bright

Caused him to die.

It was at midnight

When my very town died.

I didn't believe

That my home became haunted

When a light

Forced it to slowly die.

It had been years ago

Since the Chernobyl nightmare.

I still dream about

The deceased

Freely roaming

The once flourishing town.
