Water
I am water, I’m dripping away,
Though my importance, you let me fade.
Every day I am going to waste,
Now do you see what I must face?
The disrespect of all that use me,
I am essential so don’t abuse thee.
I am here for the benefit of earth,
Don’t you understand what I am worth?
I’m running low, through day and night,
Can’t you see this is not all right?
So think once more before you make a move,
This is our chance,our chance to improve.
