Rock against rock,
Tension slips,
Pressure then shock,
First tremor grips,
Fear in the hearts,
Of parents for their children,
It's just the start,
Of the environmental villain's,
Attack. Through the Earth,
Everything shakes,
"Run for all your worth!"
"Quick, before the roof breaks!"
Hearts pounding,
The world begins to fall,
Terror is surrounding,
Prayers for Nepal,
And the zenith, Everest,
Feels the ground move beneath its feet,
The chaos is effortless,
Gravity's quest is complete,
Bringing down the snow,
That clings to the mountainside,
And they all know,
There's nowhere left to hide,
The fateful quake
Measured seven-point-nine,
So much at stake,
We see the death toll rise,
Too strong for too long,
It all goes wrong,
Tears from the young,
And loved ones gone,
The wrath of the world,
That keeps us alive,
Suddenly hurled,
Over a thousand in the fire.
The pain it caused is too great,
To just stand by and wait.
So for once can we work together?
Just try and help each other?
For once let's put our differences aside,
And help.
In memory of all those who have died due to the earthquake in Nepal.
