Hello blue sky,
how are you today?
and oh the grass,
why are you so green
and soft?
Such a comfortable cushion,
for my weary body.
Hello blue sky,
why are you so close to me?
I'm on the green grass
aren't I?
I feel like i'm floating,
silently, slowly
up onto a cloud.
"Hello blue sky"
the wind whispered,
and the grass beneath me disappeared.
There was nothing to hang on to,
I was grabbing at the air,
hoping, praying,
that I would stop moving.
Go away blue sky!
I shouted in my head.
Let me go,
let me gain control,
of my chaotic thoughts,
and movements,
I must be in charge.
Leave blue sky,
you are no longer kind.
You're just faking that everything
is alright.
Well it's not ,
so please return the ground,
I need it.
Come back green grass,
and solid earth.
I need the support,
of you right now.
Please return,
so I can stand
and fight.
Why am I fighting?
I don't really know,
all I know is,
i'm being accused.
I'm defending myself,
and fighting for what is right,
with the only way
that will work.
I'm using my words,
standing on the green grass,
looking up to the blue sky
and shouting
"Show me who you really are!"
The sky turned gray,
and I smiled.
There will be no more lies in my mind.
We all have our own inner battles, some are darker than others. But if we can see the light and the opportunity to fight and speak up for ourselves, we could destroy those inner demons, that chose to reside deep within our souls.
