Climate Change

Where am I?

Why am I here?

My thoughts race through my mind

As I remember everything that happened.

I was a succulent, soaking up the sun with my friends in a rainforest,

But the fire, it ruined everything.

Singing leaves, burning bushes and worst of all, destroying the forest.

Our rainforest.

                                          Our home.

                                                                                    Gone.

Everything blacked out as humans dug me out of the ground,

Saying something about Climate Change. 

And now, I find myself alone, no rainforest, no friends. 

I wonder where my friends and family are,

I wonder if they’re safe.

I ask myself those questions again,

          Where am I?

                                                                    Why am I here?

I know the answer now,

                                      Climate. Change.
