If I look high up,
Will I find peace?
If I breathe in fresh air,
Will I find bliss?
At night, I gaze at the stars.
Then I close my eyes,
Suppress inner wars,
Smother painful lies,
And stop to think
This very instant.
I dream, I blink,
I treasure the moment.
As precious as it is ephemeral
It won’t last forever.
The grey sky is dismal,
The rain is no better.
When the rain drops drip down,
My whole world weeps with it.
When the heart cries so loud,
Every piece of it is lost bit by bit.
Yet the morning does come,
And the azure sky smiles at me.
A lonely day is already gone,
A new one is about to begin.
I then forget the pain of yesterday
Because in hope, I innocently believe.
Bad memories have been washed away,
Again, my world has started to live.
Don’t take this away from me
Ever,
This beautiful sky.
Never,
Will I say goodbye.
