World Without Wonder

In a world without wonder.

An imagination-less society.

The trees never dance

The birds bare no song.

Mans heart is blackened.

His eyes buried deep in his skull.

Society never questions.

Not one word is said.

In a world without wonder.

A dragon no longer soars among clouds.

Books are shelved.

Enchanted realms forgotten.

Nature disregarded.

Dreams wither away.

Stars fall without a wish.

No one seems to notice.

In a world without wonder.

Dandelions never feel a breath.

A forest shows her scars.

Greed becomes our love.

Life seems less important.

Nothing is left sacred.

The hope of tomorrow dies.

No one seems to notice.
