The sky cries,
And falls
Onto my childhood

Memories, broken
A piece for each star

My happiness, tried,
And tried to survive in those times,
But it became the rain
And fell to the ground

I remember the tears.
They were the sun, because
all day I would cry,
My happiness, in the ground

The playground laughed at me.
The ground welcomed me.

The sky did not break me
(though I wish it had)
Only my memories.

I would love to fly,
But the ground would only welcome me
once more

So here I sit
Drowning in a torrent of tears,
And years, wishing to fly

But the sun would melt my wings

And the ground would only
welcome me
once
more

I can remember laying on the grass as a child, fearing the sky and welcoming the feeling of being rooted to the earth. This portrays sadness in past hopes. Absolutely splendid.

it was very direct....I like it; it held a softer lilt and it beckoned some intriguing thought....
