Let the Planet Fly

Stand up with your eyes wide
reach out, out, feel the sky
together
we will hold it all together
we will make this planet fly

when the buildings crumble
when the footsteps sink too low
when the sun is burning everything
is the time for us to grow

turn the twisting winds around
to blow once more into the cold
weave the leaves of all the trees
so all is one inside this fold
the dark moon holds the image
the glaring sun is never tame
dance we will, the futures tune
nothing shall remain the same

let the burning heart explode
show it how to fall and flame
dance we will, the futures tune
nothing shall remain the same

where’s the need to lie and cheat
where’s the need to have it done
where’s the need to be the carpet
for the so called 'better one'
where’s the need to make excuses
where’s the need to finalise
where’s the need to be the same
we will not be analysed

Stand up with your eyes wide
reach out, out, feel the sky
together
we will hold it all together
we will make this planet fly

About this poem:
My hope for the future, that when we reach the crunch point, we as humanity will make the choice to grow in soul and wisdom, instead of mind and comfort. A hope that we will learn to grow with the planet, be one with life, rather then try to fit shifting insubstantial social status's.
