I Am In Love With The World

The branches crunch beneath my feet

As echos of my exhale spread throughout the forest

They are over-powered by destruction

As the engines switch on, the world around me flees

Birds scatter into the sky in a moment of panic

As the life without wings tries to run

A moment of silence becomes a moment of disaster

trees that fall around me begin to smash on the forest floor

A piercing sound rips through the forest

Whilst the sound of engines begins to get close

An entire ecosystem destroyed within the matter of minutes

Bees nest's crushed by the fallen trees

Rabbit holes caved in by the tyres of mankind

They are getting close now, I can feel it

I feel the ground around me shake

I'm looking past where the trees once stood

Bushes and plants no longer rooted into the ground

Birds no longer singing

I'm alone

I look up at the blue sky

And close my eyes

I take a deep breath and lie down

The scent of the earth beneath me makes me think of what once was my home

The tyres are no longer just noise

They are here

As my eyes open and look beyond the sky above

I am in love with the world
