I shall not weep today, for mother Earth is weeping for me. Her tears, slithering down the pale, lifeless sky. The ground, her palms; drenched in the salty fluid as she tries to catch a breath. I feel her. The aching and soreness, it hurts. As she sobs ever so softly, I shall not weep today.
I shall not sob today, for mother Earth is sobbing for me. Her cries, sharp and in bursts, as they pierce the sky. Buildings quake at the sound of her pain. Screaming between the sobs, all while trying to catch her breath, I can hear the pain in her voice. As she screams in pain for me, I shall not sob today.
I shall not hurt today, for mother Earth is hurting for me. I can see it in the flashes of light that electrify and send terror to all around her. It cuts through the air like a knife, striking it’s target with immense force. Fearful, I watch as she rips herself apart. Knowing she feels my pain, I shall not hurt today.
