Perfection In the Sky
Some days you see perfection in the sky
and it can bother you that that perfection
is not within you
Some days you look up to see dirty buildings and filthy air
and you wonder where the beauty is
and if it really still exists
and you realize the outside does not match the beauty
desired inside
Some days the sky is gray and rain falls in relief
And its in these days that you are in peace
because whatever hindrance that you keep pent up
is somehow comforted by the sky's release
And that part of melancholy
can just be
...And it is in these days
when you are wrecked and cloudy,
that particles of hope condense
ready to rain joy upon you,
because you know that in the morning
bright blue will once again gleam in your eyes
and the air will breath of relief
and rainbows will speak of the promise of life
and the perfection you see in the sky
will spill straight into your soul
