Earth Is Human Too

This is with credit to my friend, Teresa Ng.


I dreamt of a place I could call home,
One full of laughter
And smiles.

And that place I would call home
It’s a peaceful house,
Overflowing with love.

But we all know it doesn’t exist.

I kiss your toes
And worship the ground you walk on.
I sing the sweetest melodies.

Yet you strip me of my beauty
And you threw trash at me.
You made me feel like I didn’t belong.

I was not appreciated. 

Little do you know
That you are dying right beside me
Along with millions of friends.

Apologies are meaningless
And it’s too late for complete change.
You are still simply human

There’s only so much you can do.



Stop the ignorance
Because karma shows no mercy.
And absolutely nothing goes unpunished.

Action is the strongest form of reformation,
So ponder over your habits
And think,

“Would the world be happy with this?”

Enlightenment and positive attitude
Make all the difference
One step at a time.

I am the ocean
Whom has been damaged and defiled.
And I only have one request to make.

Save me.
