Silent Songs

What The Sky Told Me

The sky has a way of telling us
When things have fallen into place;
That's why the sun shone golden yellow
On the day I saw your face.

The sky has a way of warning us
When the sweet things start to fade,
And so the stars could not be seen
On the night you walked away.

The sky has a way of mourning with us
When we decide to pull back, let go;
It's no wonder the rain poured heavily
When I tore down what I had sown.

But when the day came that I lost everything,
I wondered, "Why is the sky not weeping?"
I realized, in that moment, that
The sky had always been lying.

Maybe that's why you had to leave;
The fault is mine, all mine, you see
Because though I should've taken the moment to love,
I believed whatever the sky told me.
