Tick Tick Tock

Time races by

Seeping away

Aging and then ceasing

Bodies decay

Worms in and out

Time passes

The world changes

But we don’t

Age after age

Same shit

Same hate

Same judgments

Death, killing, maiming, blaming

Humans lost in time

Cycle after cycle

Destruction, devastation

Wars

Hate

Rape

Politicians lying

Nature everywhere is dying

Guns with rights

Classism

Racisms

Sexism

It’s all around me

Seeping out of every corner

Puddling at my feet

Suffocating

All the fear

All the hate

Age after age

It’s always the same

Humans lost in time

Stuck in a loop

When will it stop?

Tick tick tock

Time races by

Seeping away

Yet we stay the same…

I’m screaming

No one hears me

Hate and fear surrounds me

Trying to keep my light

Shine in the dark

Shine bright

Social media

Finger-pointing

Earth dying

More politicians lying

Keep shining

Weighted down

Darkness everywhere

Keep shining

Is there anybody there?

Keep shining

In the darkness

In the cold

Keep shining

While others are lying

Hating

Killing

Deliberating

Keep shining

Work harder

Make less

Pay more

Keep shining

Animals dying

Mother Earth suffering

Decaying

She’s all alone

But

I’m here

Still Fighting

Still Trying

Still Shining
