When

When

A Poem by Healing Star
"

I'm winking Back, and I don't need to Wonder, Just who the Hell you Are, because my Heart Knows.

"

When the clean water is all Gone
What will you hand me to Drink
When the Air I cannot Breathe
Then will we wonder, will we Think

Maybe there is another World 
I know some people think they can step Off
But I don't want to leave my Mother
Her colors please me, her grasses are Soft

When we can no longer see the Sun
And all her fields have been built Upon
No where left for the Children to Play
You probably won't notice Nature's Gone

When the Oceans are empty of Life
Nowhere for the animals to Shelter
And the people are left with nothing but Strife
Will you turn and say we could have done Better

Why, oh why, does this go on and On
Can't we change before it's too Late
We can all learn to sing new Songs
There is no reason for any longer to Wait

The way we've been moving cannot be Sustained
We got to turn and find all new Ways
It's time to find answers to reduce the Pain
We got to learn how to create our own Plays

And stop acting in the Ones they gave us to Star
Believe we can come up with our own Answers
We really can all stop driving Cars
Stop looking outside for all our Cures

I am a man who has finally realized he needs to write down what matters to him, that I might learn from myself, what is important, what I value. To capture who I am now, for that is all we have is no.. more..
