Nothing left

Once free to fly,
frolic and run
To adventure their home,
woods, forest, and fun
Once free to thrive
To live their dream
Feel the sun on their fur
Its strong, sunny beams
Once came people
New settlers galore
Who trampled on their land
And made the rain pour
Once they were ready
Cages were locked
Animals were trapped,
their home a builders block
Once it’s been going
for so many years
There's nothing left
Just cities and fears
