Looking Up (Other) by Verse2Verse
Gracefully drifting through holes left in reason
Delicately dancing down to taste every season
I'll watch you sun, you'll warm my face
I wish I could offer something, something other than space.
As your beams float down, a thick border of light midst shade
The freedom to pick up and run, guided by the option to stay
The gift of the world lies solely complete
Whether the chill of the winter, or the mid-summers heat.
Though sometimes the rain can fall so hard
It's drops; the weight of the world
Sometimes it's saddening sheets of spray
Seem to overflow the curb.
It cannot go on forever
No matter what they say
As long as I can take a breath
I can wait until that day.
So when it gets bad, I know it could be worse
When the faces that we chase always seem to submerge
In the darkness and the hate, in which we create
Leaving shells of their souls on the side to waste.
Please warm my face, that's all I ask
On those days of pain which cannot last
I know myself and I know what is true
To warm my face, is all I ask of you
