Poetry: The world changes when people change

by Laura Caspari

Created on: March 06, 2011

Why can’t we live in peace?

Is it so hard not to fight?

Why can’t we stop the wars?

Is it so hard to make a difference between wrong and right?

Why do people kill each other?

Is it really so hard not to kill?

Why do we kill the nature?

Is it so hard not to make the world ill?


Oh, what is wrong with us?

Our planet is dying before our eyes,

And it’s our fault that this world is ill,

Soon there’ll be no more sunrise.


Why can’t we stop to hurt other animals?

They’re dying because of us,

Why can’t we stop killing each other?

We’re turning this planet into dust.


Are we really so heartless?

How can we watch our planet dying?

Are we really so shameless?

Help! Our planet earth is crying!


But nobody listens, nobody cares,

We’re just going on like always,

We’re pretending that everything’s fine,

Although we’re hurting our planet all days.


Why do we have all these laws?

Nobody really cares about it,

Why can’t we just use our brains?

The answer: We got rid of it.


Are we really so heartless?

How can we watch our planet dying?

Are we really so shameless?

Help! Our planet earh is crying!


How can we humans be the world’s worst enemies?

We’re a danger for all the others, animals and plants,

The ‘king of the world’, god’s greatest work,

Is the worst kind of all, the world’s distruction never ends.


How long can we go on like this?

When the hell will we learn to care?

When our planet has finally died?

Why can’t we just play fair?


Are we really so heartless?

How can we watch our planet dying?

Are we really so shameless?

Help! Our planet earth is crying!


We’ve got ‘the devil on our shoulders’,

And it whispers to us: You will die!

And yes, he’s right, it’s just fair if we die,

All the humans and no one will cry.


The world will be a paradise,

Everything’s peaceful, there’ll be no more tears,

The world will be a wonderful place,

No wars, no fights, no distruction, a place without any fears.


Are we really so heartless?

How can we watch our planet dying?

Are we really so shameless?

Help! Our planet eath is crying!


How long will the earth survive?

When will our planet fight back?

When will the nature turn against us?

All the world will go black.


The last fight of the nature,

Against their biggest enemy,

And then the world will be peaceful,

The way it always wanted to be.


Why are we so heartless?

We’re watching our planet dying,

But when we’re dead,

No one will be crying.
