Dear Nature,

I heard that you’re in danger.

But people keep saying it’s nothing major.

My mom tells me whenever I cry,

That just like me you’re ill

Your temperate is getting high.

Sometimes your tears would spill,

you would cry and scream but no one would hear.

Everyone too busy thinking about their dream

Unable to do anything I feel fear,

I don’t want to loose you my dear friend

I hate to see our friendship put to end.

Contemplating, I can see your condition is starting to descend

Rescuing you has always been my intend,

But it’s hard ‘coz all what people do is deny and pretend

I don’t want to witness the destruction of your etherial beauty

Your air that was once clear,

is now the reason why i’m laying here.

Your once crystal blue ocean,

is now buried under this commotion

Under this poison,

your rights are stolen.

Are you able to breathe,

with your polluted breeze?

Aren’t you wondering,

“Why isn’t anyone showing grief?”

Because I am.

I want to see you recovering before I leave.

People might think this wish is naive

But it’s what I hope to achieve

Before my departure,

I would like my voice to be heard further,

Please take a moment to realize the worth

Of out only planet, the earth.
