Sky

Part 1

Ur cotton candy milkiness

Teases the dreamer in me

a comfort so fresh and so free

I hope that one day I will be

like you,

Soft, endearing

blazing

like a forever summer breeze

you hyphenate the skies, extend their grace to the trees

Hugging the world with all your might,

casting a velvet shadow on the leaves

I hope to one day be like you

and make the world as preciously pink as can be

Part 2

When the world comes crashing down

And time tangles around you like wires

Look away - to the sky

let her soft clouds

unweave you

let her pockets of sunshine

hold you

let her tenacity

become you

Close your eyes with her promise

That she will still be there

Watching over you

even if

You never decide to open them again
