Alien
You cannot see me.
But I see you.
I have never lived here.
But you have.
You have never seen what lies beyond.
And I have come from afar.
I have never seen the wind,
It flows and pulls.
It drags and fills.
My heart with
A wonder
I have never felt before.
I have never seen the sky,
So blue, so perfect
But even perfection
Can be corroded.
I have never seen the clouds,
Laden in the blue
Filled with an icy
Chilly hue
Their whiteness
Drained of its energy
Sapped of strength
Rejuvenated with a sizzling ire
They rumble, they hiss
Striking the ground
All its perfection
Eroded with the wind
I have never touched the ground
Hovering in the air
It feels like home
Warm and sweet
Filled with love
To kindle and keep
I have never seen a tree
So massive
So royal
He stands tall and watches
Unmoving and regal
Staring in to the deep deep
At last
I have never seen the sun.
For even now
It stands, covered by the smog
Amidst all the war.
You live here
Yet you do not protect it.
You speak of humanity.
Of rights
Of freedom
Of liberty
But they are all just words
That you like to say.
Empty.
So, how can you be human?
If you take lives
Like the tree standing regal
And the swimming sharks
And the flying birds.
Bang. Bang. Bang
How can you be human?
If you are so selfish,
That it poisons your heart.
Orchestrating your own extinction
For foolish gains.
I may not live here
But you do.
For without the Earth
You won’t anymore.
Bang. Bang-
