The Sky's Gone Out

Oops. Somebody spilled the sky!

sway
lean into the wind
lost again and found
but never the same so
sway

sway alone and low and UP
up so high, to the birds, the sky and say
i never meant to betray you
i just stopped caring
so lean
lean on my shoulder and cry

tears running down your face
like ice cream across my fingers
melting in the heat
so sway
softly now and sing
sing low
so i can't hear

and speak aloud
of your troubles
and spread the news
of how i used
this and that
and how i cheated
this and that
and all about my lies
and truths
and trusts
and loss

did i really lose?
