Once we were a Town.
Sometimes breathing can kill.

All the flowers have withered.

The once great forest rots away, tainted in black.

A slow lifeless looking river sneaks around the quiet town, lying in a silent darkness beneath the towers of the industrial plant.

Children play chase in the park, trying to catch their breath.

The Sun brings no joy and fades.
