Eternal

Love and reality conflict sometimes...

When glaciers melt and oceans rise and people live only on mountain tops even then will I love you.
When we’ve poisoned all the air and we’re a planet gasping and choking, with my last breath I will shout I love you.
When all we know has passed away and we’re traveling through nothing, going nowhere, at the very edge of that black hole my soul will scream, I love you.
But my scream is joined, the silence broken, then the darkness closes in but the roar splits the darkness, there, a sliver of light and love escapes. The person wakes up terrified.
Was this just a dream or does the battle continue?

wow, very beautiful.
It would read better if you could split the lines, eg:
When glaciers melt
and oceans rise
and people live only on mountain tops
Even then
i will love you
