The sky is hurting,
The sky is in pain,
The sky is healing itself with a rain.

Eloisa
Moonlight silhouette
Beneath the fitful, sour breeze
She tried to forget
The long journey of her scars
And danced with the ocean waves
And, they were mere words
Language understood by few
Fewer, read emotions
The heart, remains red
The wall clean,
erased
And again,
just words

I take care of all of you
I make sure you’re all okay
And part of that job
Requires me to say,
“I’m fine”
When I know
You don’t have it in you
To take care of me
Or perhaps I know I’m a lost cause and just want to take care of you as long as I’m still around...
Your shadow is like the clouds
In my desert sky
Your smile is the morning shine
At my lazy door
I will never lift myself up
If I can't see you anymore.
I need you so much in my life
That’s probably why.

I am just a body, but you’re its soul
And one and only heart
I am just a bird and you’re its song
And free wings
I can’t think of a new day without you
And your silent art.
Take it easy, I really love you
Please don't be shy!

I’m just alone and you’re like raindrops
And falling on my lips
I’m just the wave, but you’re its ocean
Full of deep-water
I am the moon and you are the sun
To shine it all around.
If you take me away forever
Then I will die!
