The Clouds Are Crying

The clouds are crying For the sun For the earth For clean air Trees are drenched Sopping wet and soaking up Water and nutrients Pollution It seeps deep down In the ground To the roots, the bark, the leaves The mechanism creating what we breath It’s spit back out Into the atmosphere Into our minds It unwinds Telling us not to fear Nothing is wrong Close your eyes Sleep, my dear Tomorrow the sun will shine Cast shadows Over the lies That you are told You are sold So you will never know Why the clouds are crying
