Life is walking away from us all
this world is not big enough to hold on us and all we desire
Happiness is back to shadow, and sun is not shining as it used to
My daughter shows me the clouds while waiting for my answer
God knows I can’t tell her what time it is
Her life has just started……………
I just wonder how I still can live with myself knowing how frighten she was in that moment
asking why they are burning the planet
I tightened my grip around her tiny hand
and hold on her courage to confess the truth to her shadow
That there never been them, it’s us doing the harm
It’s us giving life to the fire, it's us living for today with no faith on tomorrow
I still hear her in my mind, asking me over and over again
“Can’t we just stop this madness mum?”
Maybe I could stretch the time line or find a way to turn the clock back just for her
may be we should all do that,
maybe the answer is a trip back to the time we wanted less but felt more
maybe we still can save this planet
