earth moving underneath my feet
a little girl on shaking ground
cracks appearing in the concrete
but you don`t look up at the sound
no one notices unspoken tragedies
and I didn`t speak up
so your distance altered my reality
how fast sadness sneaks up
we grow and everything changes
time-lapse videos of our lives
we learn how to re-arrange it
wonder how we even survived
ever-expanding fields of vision see more
than we thought possible
and suddenly the things we`ve been looking for
aren`t so improbable
earth moving underneath my feet
a young woman on shaking ground
flowers blooming in summer heat
now I see you coming around
they can`t understand our unspoken stories
now I see the echoes
of generations of unrealized glory
fields of hope decomposed
earth settling under our feet
I see you look up at the sound
brand new growth in the cracked concrete
finally finding common ground

Wow. My favorite line is FIELDS OF HOPE DECOMPOSED. But there are many picturesque phrases within your tale, that ends in hope for the present. Most inspiring.
