A look into are near future world

Liisung

City of ash

forest of sand

and here we stand 

amongst the dammed

kingdom of snow 

and sky of black 

forever tortured by out past

left to atone for their mistake 

never to rest so please for our sake 

our globe of mess 

from our ancestors past 

the children of tomorrow 

Left to live in a world of sorrow

left to see this world of shame 

city of ash which we once knew 

no clean air for us to breathe 

pollution, disaster, dread, and regret 

we have all murder

we killed the life on which we live 

now our children will never know of forests

or fresh air 

our kingdom will fall

on selfish desire 

out tume is running out

so make a change 

and save the planet 

as we do not own this world on which we live

yes we have hurt it and hurt it 

so it’s our job to heal it

    Very true write Liisung, the problem is that those in power who can do something about it will not listen as there is no money in it for them.
    I do wish they would listen and respect the world in which we live.
