I looked up at the sky,
And thought about its beauty,
And wondered what the view would be like from so high above,
I know it would be so amazing,
It would be more than just a view.
What if I WAS the sky?
There would be so many things I would probably know and realize,
Stories and lives,
And beauty,
As I watched everyone live out their lives, below,
Day to day,
All the people and the animals,
Every moment of their lives I'd see,
And I would find myself wanting to get involved sometimes,
For their every joy and pain I'd feel,
Every moment of joy would become my own,
And every pain I would take in when tragedy struck,
Doing it as if I were the parent and they were my children,
And I would find that my love for them was very true,
And my love would become the radiant light that shines from this heaven,
Because I would see how precious every life was as I watched them grow,
Without hiding, their lessons and experiences would always teach me more.
If I were the sky,
It would be hard for me to understand why people would want to think different.
And now I realize that I do want to be like that one I would be,
If I were the sky.

THEY SAID
People say, "That's just the way it is",
When tragedies are happening and hearts are breaking,
In all the areas that could be changed,
Sounding like it's not worth trying to change things.
Though if a child knew of these things, I'd hear a different reaction,
They'd say, "NO!",
They're heart telling them it isn't right,
So innocent, they don't accept the ways of the world,
The killing, because they know it's not right,
And I think we should not grow away from that,
Why must we accept the ways of the world?
Why start doing the damage ourselves?
Have people stopped caring?, stopped appreciating?
It's really not about who we know or who we are close to when someone is in danger,
It is how we can understand.
They have agreed, that the world would be a better place if we learned from children,
So why have children been pushed aside with all the other issues?
I wish the world would start listening with their heart.

FALL INTO A SONG
I want to fall into a song,
And have it be all that surrounds me,
Just become enveloped in its light,
And only seeing its light,
The rest of the world will disappear.
I want to become part of the song,
Feeling its every emotion as the depth of my own soul,
As every note of this song has feeling,
And those streaks of light reach toward the heavens,
And I never want to leave this place.
