City Streets©

I walk upon my city streets
Gasping for fresh air to breathe
It’s not easy if you didn’t know
With all the pollution that surrounds us
Too many cars and trucks
Followed by tons of smokers
Buildings and homes burning their chimney stacks
It’s a wonder that anything can survive out there
I walk upon my city streets
Wishing for more change
I’m grateful for the bicycle lanes
More so for what’s left of the greenspace
I wish for so much more though
I yearn somewhat for a simpler time
Where buildings didn’t fill the air
And take away the view
I walk upon my city streets
Where the ground now crumbles at my feet
All tattered and torn
From the weight of the world
And not being cared for
I can hear the earth’s cries
I walk upon my city streets
Gasping for fresh air to breathe
I close my eyes
And realize we brought this on ourselves
Now we must find a way to fix it all
Before it’s too late
