It's midnight and the stratosphere
Is agitated and frightened,
The Earth is screaming and crying
So loud that startles the entire galaxy.
Mars from afar asks:
" What happened dear brother? "
But the Earth can't stop its tears,
It calls upon the rain to wash its little face.
"I'm hopelessly just a battle field of men
Who turned my beauty and tranquility
Into terrible ugliness and mess,
Noisy, dirty and full of lies!
A home for tyrants and beasts
I've always been,
Sheltering the sharp clash of egos
But no more, I simply can't..! ! "
It's voice muted, the last tear lifted in the sky
Exhausted and sad,
The Earth closed its heart and lids
And died.

I can understand your concern about the events going on in the earth. wars, bloodshed, rapes, looting... and so on. The earth has become a haven for cheats and thugs and brutes. Clash of ego making the place unsafe. 't's voice muted, the last tear lifted in the sky Exhausted and sad, The Earth closed its heart and lids And died.'... is such a thought provoking stanza. Thanks for sharing.
