Some say the world will end in fire<br /> some say in ice<br /> from what I have tasted of desire<br /> I hold with those who favor fire<br /> but if it had to perrish twice<br /> I think i know enough of hate<br /> that ice is also great<br /> and would suffice<br /> Fire and ice by robert Frost

I can never stay the same
the young trees grow old
the hills turn to mountains
the forest into deserts
vast oceans turned to ice
the bones to dust
it is always changing

I have seen
full forests lost, taken by flame
I have seen mountains turned in to dust
I have seen the animals change
from young to old to gone
I have seen battles, they make there scars on me
they mix there blood with mine
the ground breaks apart every time I move
all these I have seen
