Mother Earth and Father Sky Sitting closely as I sing Flying gracefully in the night As I drift upon their wings Slow and sweet, lovely tunes Frolic through the sounds Looking upon the blissful moon As I float safely to the ground Losing moments in the heat As the night comes to a holt And the moon turns to defeat So the sun can spark a volt Shining softly through the sounds That the chorus makes Of defenseless little clouds Feeling pain they cannot take The trees will slowly turn to ash As the grass becomes a blaze Melting into the dusty hash So the world becomes a haze Mother Earth and Father Sky Protect me for I am trapped In between these pins and burns Slipping from your grasp Mother you cannot save me Now that the world is cold and still Father can't come hold me I am the one that makes him shrill I know you're busy with this world I'll be a part of it one day But inside my body's swirled For these words are brash, dare I say That now I'm floating in your air The breeze linked to my heart Close you're eyes, no need to stare For now I am a part Of this world you know so well Quiet and serene Nature turns and dare i tell It was no home for me
FUN FACT: The bulk of this poem was actually written nearly 3 years ago. I recently came across it while I was going through the "NOTES" section of my old iPod. Naturally I had to immediately finish/edit this piece.. So here it is to share with you all! Xo
