Living In a Trash Can That We'Ve Created

Home is where you heart is,
That's what they say.
My home must be the forest;
My heart yearns for it every day.

Life, feeds on life.
Nature provides,
All that we'd ever need.
And what do we give in return?
We chop down the trees,
And we poison the skies.
No regard for the planet,
Or even our Own lives.

The way i see it, 
Ill be found one day.
Having Died in the woods
With a smile on my face.
As long as there are trees,
Concealing wild places,
I will go in times of need,
Where i am surrounded with nature. 

Live to spread positivity,
It's the route I've chosen.
Because Ive experienced, surges of energy that have made me feel like i was floating. 

Positivity is tangible;
Our worlds react to good vibes.
You can feel it in your heart, you can feel it in your soul, and you can feel it in your mind.

When you do good things,
It all comes back around.
You feed your environment, with positive vibes,
And nothing will ever bring you down. 

Your road may be rough,
But remember one thing,
If you Keep positive thoughts,
You'll find yourself thriving.

The power of Love,
Is matched by no other.
It will one day be Love
That brings us together.

It is love that i find,
One step into the woods.
A friendship between the trees and I;
A Oneness understood.

If people just felt for each other,
How i feel for a single tree, 
There'd never be another war. 
We'd never need any armies. 

Whats the hold up?
Where's the passion?
Stand up for our planet,
Don't let us just trash it.

This rock that we live on
Has a soul of its own.
I have felt its energy,
Flow through my bones.

Our beloved earth,
Is so battered and scared.
To us it gave birth,
Yet for it, we've no care.....
