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.
