solis occasum

melting into

the horizon,

spilling onto

the hills

like wax from

a candle

setting dry

grass

aflame

setting forth

another cycle

of blind faith

because each

time

could

be

the

last

Rosa De La Luna

My heart flows to meet

The end of the horizon

No one comes to see me

Alone with the sunset

No one is here for me

Deep sorrow flows from the lone red sun

Under blankets of orange clouds

The sun fades away

From evil night skies ahead

My dear love, where are you?

When the sun is leaving the world

To rise another day without you

Please make this the last time

That you are apart from me

My dear moon rose,

Come flowing to the shoreline

Silently into my open arms

(Same Lullaby again)

*I’m obsessed with it, sorry guys.*

Good-bye World

“Good Morning beautiful Earth,”

Says the Rising Sun

“How are you on this fine

New day?”

Gaia replies,

She’s in pain

″ The humans no longer love me”

she cries

The humans forgot

SHE IS

Living & Breathing

just as they are

They are treating her like trash

throwing debris all over

spraying poisons out of the sky

and drilling holes in her.

Gaia is being tortured

Humans think they need to save her

From whom?

Themselves?

Mother Earth gives you life,

She doesn’t need you!

She can shake

you off if she wants to.

Gaia gives love,

it is you

who does not.

Gaia doesn’t need to be saved

Gaia

needs LOVE

“ The Tears flow

The Setting of the Sun

The Ocean filled

The land was no more ”

Gaia Loves Herself ❣️

❤ Athena
