i wake up in the morning and i see the sky.
i sit there calmly, not wondering why.
just looking way up above,
listening to the birds sing all of their love.
letting any thoughts slip out of my mind,
leaving the bad memories to float behind.
there's too much pain for one to hold,
that capture the young and torture the old.
it's way too much for just one to carry,
so many things that seem too scary.
everyday obstacles can turn into nightmares,
that haunt you each second with intimidating stares.
leading some to try an escape,
and others to hide underneath a drape.
some try to ease the pain with a pill,
others try to control every single spill.
looking for a way to have some control,
when life is taking too strong of a toll.
just look outside, step out the door.
there is something waiting,
so much more.
there is a place you can always escape to,
a sky of possibilities made just for you.
a cloud full of grace, a smile on the moons face.
the sun in your eyes,
oh the most blessed surprise.
for this world was not made for violence,
not meant for guns, for fighting nor war.
this world was made for all of us,
to spread our wings and explore.
to spend our moments with one another,
each soul a sister or brother.
i believe the sky is one of the best,
a gift better than all of the rest.
for when the day is rough,
and challenges have become too tough;
just look way up high,
and you will see why.
so much glory, endless blue.
an incredible escape,
made for me and for you.
