DarkPoetry -|- HeLlSeND -|- Earth

Earth

It breathes, it feeds
It festers, it bleeds
We piss in it’s veins
And walk on it’s back
It’s aware that we’re there
It waits to attack
So patiently resting
Just hoping to heal
We beat at it’s skin
Not knowing it feels
But when the wrath comes
We act so amazed
Dumbfounded and blind
We stand in a daze
Asking a fiction
To assist with a fact
If god did reply
You’d still be off track
The reason is simple
And we’re blind to see
That raping her soul
Will not set us free
So why then continue
This endless assault
And then get pissed off
When it’s solely our fault

yeah, isn't it grand what we do to the one thing that gives us every single thing we own today? talk about a serious case of biting the hand that feeds you. this was great; powerful and, to the point, and from the heart

I love it. I completely love it. I've tried writing something like this but it just didn't come out the way I wanted it to. This is amazing though.

I totally agree with this work - i like the way you make Earth a person so it really makes you think how bad it is to harm it.

Makes me think of earth day. Why have one noone does a thing. We kill our earth and try to cover it up but only make it worse...
