EARTH

EARTH DAY

I am the Earth
And the Earth is me.
Each blade of grass,
Each honey tree,
Each bit of mud,
And stick and stone
Is blood and muscle,
Skin and bone.
And just as
I Need every bit
Of me to make
My body fit,
So Earth needs
Grass and stone and tree
And things that grow here
Naturally.
That's why we
Celebrate this day.
That's why across
The world we say:
As long as life,
As dear, as free,
I am the Earth
And the Earth is me.

BLIND

Out of you,
And the Mirror
On the wall.
Neither of you
See me at all.
You can't tell,
If I lie,
Or if I,
Want to die.
It's the true me
You'll have to find.
Untill then
You'll remain blind.

No one understands me
everything I say or do is twisted and confused
everything is pointless
My life is a ruin.
My life is a prison.
My life is full of disappointment.
No one likes me
they all pretend
they all are fake
My life is a ruin.
My life is a prison.
My life is an endless pit of disappointment.
I am sick
of this whole world
of the constant struggle to please others
My life is a ruin.
My life is a prison.
My life is overflowing with disappointment.
I can’t wait
to finally be free
to finally be alive
My life is a ruin.
My life is a prison.
My life is over.
