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.
