  • Every Single One

    The sky is not falling

    Chicken Little went home

    I wish this corrupted land was not my home

    The politicians flew too close to the sun

    I have now learned how a cheeto can run

    The sky is falling 

  • Falling

    The Princess never expected this.

    She never expected her world to spiral out of her control.

    She never expected to witness the cycle of death and life before her very eyes.

  • Believe

    Gentle blue turns deep like grey

    Grey turns dark in a peaceful way

    My hand reaches forward

    I begin to grin

    Gently down come the birds

    Guiding their kin

    My hand grows damp

    My hair moistened now

  • Crashing Down

    I sit on my front lawn and watch as the sky starts to fall.

    I knew it was going to happen.

    We all did.

    I sit on the lawn in silence.

    The sky crashing down.

    It shatters into a million pieces.

  • Falling sky

    falling sky, slowly, piece by piece

    I've forgotten how to move, to breathe

    all the truth I've ever known begins to cease

    as I watch my world fall apart

     

    time is ticking, while holding still

  • look up

    look up

    the sky is falling

    pieces descending from high above

    the canvas that once held breathtaking scenes

    the sky is falling

    never thought the day would come when I would see clouds so up close

  • How the sky cries

    The sky cries

    with rain.

     

    The sky snows for every whispered secret

    from under thick blankets

    in the dark

    for the kid in everyone

    that finds joy

    the sky hugs with snow.

     

  • Falling Clouds

    The sky is falling

    Like a drop tower

    Plummeting towards the ground.

    The sky is falling

    The ground is giving way

    The earth has stopped spinning

    The sun has stopped shining.

    The sky is falling
