Down upon us.
The memories remind us of our mistakes.
Trapped in this never-ending maze of madness.
Alone with my thoughts…
The INTENSITY increases as it always does.
The cries and wails of the rain as it dances around me.

The sound as the wind claps back with a mighty ROAR like a lion.
The plants are being ripped out of the ground.
I try to catch them but my limbs, as they have always been, are frozen in time.
I rustle my leaves as loudly as I can, but it’s no match for the weeping and screeching of these two elements.
The wind and rain tussle and fight for power, I try to warn them, but it’s no use for they cannot hear my voice.
Then silence…
It’s too late. The barren land standing before us, unearthly.
Save our world.
