So we’re living in a world that is
Crying and pleading. Mother Earth is probably
Wondering why human kind is nothing but hate
And full of want and greed and always needing.

Why we never have the sense to care or the
Empathy to feel the loss, the hurt, the tears,
The blood and the fear of our Mother Earth,
Of how she cries out to us and begs us to stop hurting her.
We’ve already been seeing her signs.

Revenge is all bitter but not in her nature,
But oh so sweet since she commands the changes of
The seasons, the changes of the climate and it is
She who decides of how long we can stay here
And make no mistake for she will sacrifice herself and
All its glorious wonders only to exterminate
The bad that is hurting her—and of the innocent she will not care!

Because in truth if we do not care for ourselves then
Who is to say that we, the human kind,
Earn the right to live in our beautiful Mother Earth?
How dare we? To even call it Home; for we do not deserve her!

And the pain she will inflict upon us will be unbearable, the torture unimaginable.
The cries and the screams of all life not being able to breathe whilst
Being drowned in a hot, humid atmosphere
For where once we stood ignorant and proud
Will be nothing but our ashes to mark our hypocrisy.
Those few that survives this will be taken by the
Peaceful, calm serenity of a long deep slumber
Underneath the brisk cold of the minus 150 degree temperature
Where we will all suffer forever frozen the fate of our last days!

No, this is too much hate and not the way of Mother Earth, but to save herself
From the cruel ignorant intentions of our species
She will open for the very first time our eyes
For we have all been blind and by then it will all be too late.
