i'd write love letters to the earth
whisper them to the wind
fold them into paper boats
and find a stream to sail them in
i'd write of beautiful sunrises
of the oranges and pinks
while i sit beside the sea shore
when the waves could smudge my ink
i'd write these words on paper
but for paper i need trees
like many things mankind has made
but doesn't really need
and so our letters to the earth
leave less love than they do scars
when we write them in our blinding light
that blocks out all the stars
so when writing letters to the earth
its time that we rethink
since we don't need a piece of paper
if the life we live's the ink
