You V.S. the Sky
she looked at me
with questioning eyes
and asked me
why the sky is blue
i answered
"it's sad with envy,
jealous of the beauty
i see in you
it cannot paralyze me
it cannot move me
it can't break me
the way you do
and no matter the mix
of vivid colors
it can't replace you
as my muse
it mourns and weeps
o'er this landslide loss
in it's contest
against you
it knows from you
it can never steal my heart
and that's why the sky is blue."
