She Dies Unwillingly
I will never convince the masses to turn.
Threats they’ll burn fall like scattered beads.
It’s an old tale they have hardened to.
The ocean is dying, the forests are crying.
Though not by way of rain.
This world we walk has a heart and soul.
At least it began that way.
But today she’s hanging by a thread
and I dread the outcome.
Can we not hold hands somewhere
and swear to try again?
