Seeing her was the same as
walking outside
and discovering
that the sky is blue
and finding it
absolutely beautiful.
I wish to experience life
as honestly as possible.
I have had enough of
my longings for
permanence and certainty.
Alas, must I stake a claim
on the sky to find fulfilment?
Do I need to own it all
to love it?
Should I resent those who
look upon the same sky as I?
Envy the clouds which
occupy it?
The sky was there before
me
and will be there after
me.
And that is a comforting thought,
I suppose.
