She is the Sky.

The Sky needs no one, no love
She knows no limit, holds many secrets
Beautiful, untouchable
Let me bow before you
Pour out my heart to you
The Sky will always listen.

Shed your skin
Open your skull
Remove the sins
Remember the love
Begin again.

We are Two equal to One
Day and Night, Moon and Sun
Dark Clouds and Rain
Blood Flow and Vein
Where you go, I will follow
Without you, there is no tomorrow.

The room is cold,
bland and boring
When She appears,
I feel my heat warming.

We are Two who equal One
She is me,
flesh
bone
and blood
She is the tree,
roots
branches
and leaf
My sister is the Sky,
and I a tree.

She is the Sky.

She is the Sky,
endless
untouchable
existence.
When I was in the hospital after my suicide attempt, my twin sister wrote this poem for me.
