Oh how lovely she is with her bright sunshine,
even with rain she still sparks a smile of mine.
From her green grass to her thick crust
is great beauty that causes inevitable lust.
I want to explore every detail of her existence
but theres so much to discover, one would need assistance.
Yet, I do not skip outside to admire everyday that she breathes
and I do not look up at the blue sky and at the tall trees.
Instead, I sit inside, doors closed along with the blinds,
because it is hard for me to sit back and unwind.
People that you give a home destroy you,
and it leaves me hopeless, not knowing what to do.
So I close my eyes away from where you show,
but being away from you leaves me with woe.
You deserve so much, yet I give you nothing to be.
But earth, my beautiful earth, please forgive me,
because our time together is long, but not forever.
So today I will stop listening to the harsh sounds of your inhabiters,
and I will open my ears to the sweet sounds of your many voices
Soothe me with your light so I can be one of your positive noises.
I not only want to be a part of you, but I want to be the best part too
so that when our time is through, I won't regret one moment that I spent with you.
