Sky

The sky sighed,
breathed above
a land adored,
and when night
set in, punctured
holes within its heart
and called them stars
instead of scars
to still give light

The earth cried
covered in a
veil of clouds,
hid from love
it could not reach

The rain fell,
the sun rose,
the tree knew
mirrored
into water
it joined the
earth and sky

twin souls
unrequited
