Kayel heat

Again, it was another hot night.
When it's humid, I find it difficult to write.
This global warming is living up its hype.
This heat is making my skin ripe.

Do what we can, no matter how trivial.
Contribute to the cause, no matter how little.
Just keep on creating awareness, no time to squabble.
To save this Earth, is really quite a struggle.

As much as possible, just stay inside.
Drink lots of water, that is right.
Don't overexert yourself as a guide.
We can't run away from the sun, there's nowhere to hide.

If we fail, the circumstances are terrible.
The future is doomed, that'd be horrible.
At the moment we've to deal with this heat, how unbearable.
Let's pray and hope that things will improve, is that possible?

Keeping global temperature down, now that's a fight.
Making people aware, that's a plight.
The world is burning, nowhere can we take flight.
Is the worse coming? No one knows, not quite.
