The Poet Sky

Includes:

Somewhere warm to hide under during a storm Someone to love when times are tough Something soft to cuddle when it's hard Some reason to keep going even when it's rough

It happens again and again I heard the beauty you made And now I have to speak louder Making my voice heard over yours

I'm so tired of always swimming upstream I want to let the current sweep me away

They are my moths I am their flame They are never far away

The waves get higher crashing all around me I lost sight of the port amidst the raging sea

As the three of you begin life's journeys anew Remember everything that our family has taught you

We don't want violence in our streets We want love in our hearts

We don't want screams of fear We want songs of hope

It's hard to think about tomorrow When we're so busy surviving today But no matter how bad things get It's gonna be okay

We haven't always gotten along There were times I shouted and screamed Times that I left you disappointed Or when I said things I didn't mean

I wanted to show how much I care So I sat and listened to you talk But I didn't respond or react So you thought I wasn't paying attention
