Description
I remember when the sky was filled with clouds. Nowadays, all we can see are streaking missiles and fighter planes.I remember when the rivers used to be full of clear water. Nowadays, they are stained red with blood.
I remember when the townspeople used to smile. Nowadays, those who smile, are insane.
I remember when we could buy the food we ate. Nowadays, we must forage for it ourselves.
I remember when the only time we ever saw a dead body was when we went to a funeral. Nowadays, dead bodies litter the streets.
I remember when we ran outside just to breathe the fresh air. Nowadays, the air is suffocating.
I remember when we used to visit our neighbors. Nowadays, our neighbors are dead.
I remember when I used to be afraid of the darkness. Nowadays, I'm afraid of what is in the darkness.
I remember when I had two siblings. Nowadays, I have none.
I remember when this town was a lively, bustling place. Nowadays, it is in ruins.
I remember when there was no war. Nowadays, I live in it.
