It is us!

I wrote this some time ago but was thinking about it today. We are responsible!

 It is us!

 we see
 Hurt, anger, pain
 everywhere
  
 Do the flowers
 Feel pain
 As their petals fall?
  
 Are the trees sad
 When they are gray
 In winter?
  
 Is the river
 Angry with
 the sea?
  
 No
 No
 No
  
 More often it is us
 Who give
 The pain
  
 It is us
 Who cause 
 The anger
  
 It is us
 Who bring
 The hurt
  
  
 We pluck
 The flower
 From its stem
  
 We cut down
 The tree
 While it lives
  
 We spill oil
 Into
 The river
  
 It is us
  
 We bring 
 Pain
 Anger
 Hurt
  
 It is us
