Took a step outside,
But then I closed my eyes.
I didn’t have the strength to see;
The pain right in front of me.

Wade ton in vain as England force Ashes draw
So I went inside
And pretended that everything was fine;
Like the flowers weren’t fading,
And the Earth wasn’t degrading.
And so I looked away,
From the black smoke coming in my way;
The world inside was calm and bright;
Global warming didn’t bring in a fright.
Full of warmth I fell asleep:
Lived in a dream that etched so deep.
After years I was finally awake,
From my world but it was a mistake.
I couldn’t find the wind; the sun; or the rain;
I had indeed lived a life but all in vain.
