Climate change is real
And everywhere
It haunts our Earth
Every hour of every day


Alas! The nations
Least responsible for it
Tend to suffer
The most
Akshita Aug 2020
There will be many nights
Where you see a starless sky

There will be days
When it pours and rains endlessly

There will be evenings
When you wish you were
Anywhere but here

There will be times when
All you want is to be rescued

However, know that these times
Are simply ephemeral
They will not last till an eternity
Akshita Aug 2020
We only have one Earth,
So why don't we live and act like it?
Why do we go on
Wasting non-renewable resources?
Why do we keep on
Hunting and haunting wildlife?
Why do we continue
Chopping down the trees?
Why do we pretend
That there's another planet B?
Akshita Aug 2020
Let go of appraisal
Let go of satisfaction
Instead, strive to be more
Hustle to be better

Do not be content
Even when the goal is met
Instead, strive to be more
Hustle to be better

Do not rest on your laurels
Do not flaunt the feather in your cap
Instead, strive to be more
Hustle to be better

— The End —
