Changing Skies

How many times did the sun come back?
Sunrises and sunsets came and went
How many do we have left?
How many prayers have we sent
To keep us together?

I’ve watched the colors of the sky change
I’ve watched your eyes change with the moon 
Death gripping each moment
And it’s gone too soon

It’s a blessing and a curse to live so well
Trapped in hell as these fires rise
Everything we know keeps changing
Pulled into the tide we ride

We seek comfort in familiar things
Wish for strength to weather the storm
Hope and pray, cry and scream
But change makes us transform

Does the night sky show us its scars?
Beams of light from each dying star
Speaks to us in blinks of an eye
You sleep, but sleep is hard

The dawn will come and bathe us in light
Trapped between lucid dreams and reality
We keep the stars in our wounds
They heal us from the inside out as we see...
Love means there’s no finality 

Love Always,
Lainey
