the sky stares at me
begging me to take a picture
i shake my head
"no," i say
"i must wait from dusk till dawn"

the sky frowns in pain
"i'm sorry" i say
"but i must wait from dusk till dawn"

the sky asks why, and i reply:
"i have to see him. i have to see him before i take my last picture and leave this world"
the sky turns cloudy, and tears fall from it's eyes

the sky suddenly says:
"if you must wait from dusk till dawn, i'll be here for you. but i ask for one thing in return"

"what is it?" i ask simply

"don't leave him. i'm not ready to see you up here.
its too soon"
