I Cannot Save
I cannot save
I cannot save the world
I cannot,
I cannot save environments
I can not save, here
and recover my progress
whilst the world has regressed,
I can't be safe here.
///
But I want my loves to be.
///
I cannot safeguard
My happy people, my chosen family
I cannot extend a net below their feet,
only a rope to tread on, above an abyss, inciting stumbling.
I cannot be social, lest I lose safety
So unseen, they may disappear.
///
I cannot save money.
And money is not safe.
I cannot give money,
to those i love the best.
///
I cannot do so much,
So I'll just have
to do
or give
the rest.
