Melting

Days become longer as life slowly disappears,
The solid ice turns into a liquid just like human tears,
which makes me thnk of my deepest long lost fears,
I try my hardest to seek for food for my family,
But I just become more weak,
As the Antartica slowly leaks my family is just a weak.
The ozone layer is now hot and my family just can't handle the lot.


So as long as men and women can see and we can all breathe,
There is no chance if we keep our ways,
That penguins and polar bears can live life to the full extreme.

As the ice blocks slowly drift away,
The key that solves the mystery does not lie to far away,
As long as all our nations work as one we can stope the ice blocks melting one by one.
