Crumbling

The world around me,
Crumbling.
So much loss,
My heart is grumbling
For something to be right,
My god it's troubling.
The world around me,
Crumbling.

I cry out,
Nothing.
I scream and shout,
It sounds like mumbling.
I cannot help,
No words escaping.
I cry out,
Nothing.

On a tiny Island,
Stranded.
I'm with them,
But still they feel abandoned.
I reach out,
It's worse that I imagined.
On a tiny island,
Stranded.

I offer help,
Declined.
"On this island
We feel divine."
They're insides however
Are begrimed.
I offer help,
Declined.

They say they're fine,
Lies.
Not to me
But to their minds.
Constant pain behind
Their eyes.
They say they're fine,
Lies.
