Wait! Don't go so fast!
Don't leave me amongst all these trees! It's dark. The leaves flutter in the wind and the cold wind bites into my skin. My frightened eyes search the surroundings as I shiver alone amongst the trees. How am I supposed to find my way back to civilization? How am I supposed to find my way back to find someone to make proud, or to find a profession to make my ambitions in? I won't know how to live out here, but to collect rocks, forlornly, and to eat roots and berries flavorlessly. |

the word "civilization" was originally "humanity"
clearly influenced by "Time" by Chantal Kreviazuk
