Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

A million years from now this world will be forgotten The hopes and dreams of billions Will have scattered with the wind A million years from now A million years from now This world will be of metal Our petty little errors Will crush this planet's hope A million years from now A million years from now Our children's children's children Will curse our killing legacy And hate us for their deepest sins A million years from now A million years from now It's not that long to wait We can't afford to lose it here And kill our planet's future A million years from nowI'm not sure about the last bit any suggestions Written July 30th, 2001 © on Jul 30 2001 09:10 AM PST   0 • 10
