Skies were always fascinating Them with their blue hues Brightness in even the darkest navy Accented with silver twinkle Or giants made of pillow softness The whitest mattresses in the sky But it always daunts me how skies are grey With their plush blues Gone to waste The doom of smoke comes to play But then comes the tears of those enchanted With droughts and disparity But grey skies don't always cry Not the ones that smoke you dry They force the water out of smiles Those who couldn't revoke No one asks to be blown up by the mist of our greed And for a second there is fire but the rest is just need Sadness wanders beautiful cities Whilst their people are broke Burning the happiness of children on the streets Or whatever is left of them So When I look up At night or day And see the blue is here today and with my fear I look up high, My god, thank you for a clear blue sky
