[Inks Of Time Poetry]

Everything that was green

Everything that was green

We were on a quest 

A quest to make it greener 

Then our hunger intensified 

Our hunger for greener

As we chased for greener

We sacrificed our good times 

Suddenly everything started to wither 

And eventually;

Everything that was green was never the same

And the change was not so good, 

Not even close to what we desired 

Then we realized;

Perhaps some things are better left green
