Climate Change
We were an ocean once,
vast and untamed,
but tides shifted,
winds wore us down.
Our words are droughts now,
silence, glaciers melting,
flooding the ground we swore to keep.
Can we rebuild what we scorched,
or are we the storm
that left nothing but ruins?
About This Poem
Not every relationship ends in one moment.
Some fall apart slowly — piece by piece — until what once felt endless begins to feel fragile.
This poem came from thinking about how love changes over time when communication fades and silence takes its place. The way distance can grow even when two people remain close in proximity.
"Climate Change" is about emotional erosion — the quiet damage that happens when words disappear, trust weakens, and the ground beneath you no longer feels steady.
Some storms arrive suddenly.
Others build so slowly you don’t notice until everything has shifted.
This poem lives in that realization — the moment you ask whether something broken can still be rebuilt.
