Tears For The World

'The damage done will heal, you'll see'
Reality through tired eyes makes it impossible for me to agree.
So I sail away to seek forgiveness from the raging sea.

Strange how life's renewal seems delightfully bright,
when one leaves nature's tortured corpse, twisted with blight,
on the beaten coast, forgotten, ignored and out of sight!

The ocean swell carries the worlds' whispered singing.
A lament of destruction that humanity is relentlessly bringing,
to our shores, our doors, seeping into unsuspecting pores,
slowly infecting, killing with our constant stabbing & stinging.

Do we know that with every crash of a poisoned wave,
another creature is sent to its cold bottomless grave?
While we feast, party, at our miserable jobs we happily slave?

Surely one person in this crazed pavilion
will recognise the salt upon the contaminated faces of millions?
Tis' but the sea crying for a world that is spiralling into oblivion!
