not only you
but maybe some of my "friends" too
and like you
they hurt me
but they don't let me hurt me
and you don't know i'm hurting
to stop me from hurting
and that's why i hate you
but still i love you so much i cry
the cloud accompanies my cry
and when my tears fall down
and my heart aches
just know that the sky and clouds cry
the raindrops that fall over you
are my tears falling for you
and when the sky cries
i cry with her too
the birds stop singing
and they stop consoling the poor sky
that helps them fly
and they run from her to let the sky cry
and when the clouds come
to hide her tears from the world
but it seeps through
she doesn't want attention
and everyone hates her
because her tears fall forever
is that what they say?
they say heaven opened up
but they never said heaven accepts her to go up there
they say the hurricanes are accidents
and the tornado is nothing to them
but
the hurricanes is the pain that builds up inside
and the tornado
the thoughts that turn her mind
the thoughts that destroyed her life
but it ain't her fault and they still blame her
so why should she always be there for them
the animals have turned against her
nature just destroy her
the humans just rip her apart
and the earth doesn't heal her
like a mother heals her child
so why is she called mother earth?
whom did she heal and when did she help?
when did she save and when did she hold tight?
when did she smile at the sky?
when did she ever look her in the eyes?
why did she hurt her sad lonely child?
and why did she let her child die?
the death nobody wants
the suicide of her daughter who was remembered as sky
replaced so quickly by day
night didn't see
someone who was happy
replaced someone sad
someone who smiled
replaced someone who cried
someone who died replaced by life
but night started having secrets too
a secret just like sky did
night cried sometimes in remembrance of his lost love
the stars comforted him
and he remembered the nights sky consoled him of his troubles
the nights where long after sky had gone
and the stars twinkled and shone
the moon replacing sun
told night that pain would heal over time
do you know what night said?
"if pain healed over time
why is sky not alive?"
the moon glowed in shame
and turned away
because of that night
night himself joined his lost love
but you see
the only difference between sky and me
is that sky was loved
and i am just left alone to cry
with the tears that fall through the sky
do you want to know where the story came from
the story of sky
it came from my soul
just after the rain outside no longer fall
and sky's tears stopped
tonight i look up at the sky
the ghost of a sky and i plead
"take me"
sky looks down at me and opens her arms
she hugs me tight
and i hug her back
and the last thing she told me was
"goodnight!"
