Isolation

We had nothing
It wasn't a great surprise
For we understood something
Others did not
This life is temporary
This life is bent
But then world ended
After many bombs were dropped
We were aware that the world was different
But without television, radio, internet
We didn't know the degree
We'd be isolated
Far from society
Without much need
But food, and purpose
And of those two
We had dried and frozen food
To last 50 years
But purpose?
Simple survival is not purpose
We had nothing but food
And for us
It didn't mean anything
So what did we really have
Isolation
And nothing more
It would have to suffice
