I heard nature cry today
For it had felt my pain
Ive never seen it react this way
It felt my tender shame
For I have walked the streets
With my head towards the ground
Life is hard to defeat
When society beats you down
Tears rolled down uncontrollably
This pain I couldnt control
For inside, pain was breaking me
And destroying my soul
See, I was a normal person
With many dreams and hope
Then I begin hurting
And my life went down the slope
Depression hit me hard
Like it never hit before
My heart I couldnt guard
While hope walked out the door
As I was walking all alone
I heard thunder burst
I thought it was just the weather
Thats what came to mind first
But it released its tears
And its rain begin to pour
I guess it felt my fears
And couldnt hold back anymore
I saw the sky turn from blue to gray
As tears rolled down its eyes
I couldnt believe this happened today
I was in disbelief and very surprised
The enormous trees swayed
Showing its emotion
First time in life I wasnt betrayed
For I knew it showed devotion
The wind all of a sudden blew
For some apparent reason
It knows what Ive been through
Proving not all is indecent
Goosebumps became bold
Perhaps it were a lesson to obtain,
That society could sometimes be cold
And cause so much drastic pain
As I walked down further
To a part of world I never knew
I saw the ocean begin to murmur
And heard, dont let pain break you
I felt the touch of the sand,
Slowly embracing me
It gently passed my hand
And made its way free
As I dried my eyes,
I saw the weather change
I was caught by surprise
For this was very strange
The thunder stopped bursting
The wind no longer blew
The tress stopped hurting
The oceans voice was through
The sun came out bright
As soon as I dried my red eyes
I saw empathy shown by light
It knew what Ive felt inside
I learned a lesson today,
That society will never see
Though I must live on this way
I must not let them get to me
Just when I thought my pain was unknown,
I felt and saw nature speak
Right then I knew I wasnt alone
Because today, nature cried for me
