Earth I envey you

because even though you are hurting

you still have so much to give

you give and give until there

is nothing left and because

you effortlessly go one endlessly

going limitlessly on constantly

giving to your people

Earth I envey you because

night surrounds you with darkness

a sheet of thick cold material

that no light can escape

darkness reaching beyond

the horizon grabbing anything

it can touch

sucking the light away

Earth I envey you because

you are dying you have

lived on and watched

your people grow

even when they destroy

you and you continue

to give you are dying Earth

Please keep going
