'Behind him, across vast distances of space and time, from the place he had left, he thought he heard music too. But perhaps it was only an echo.'- The Giver by Lois Lowry

I kiss the sky with fair lips,
pale cheeks,
blue fingertips,

grasp the walls of my room,
Earth shattering scream,
tycoon,

in the seas of my heart,
broken forever,
shattered apart,

and madness in my head,
forever alone,
dead,

lips that kiss the sky,
pale cheeks,
never a goodbye,

that reaches my numb ears,
from that earth shattering scream,
tears,

roll down my pale cheeks,
blue fingertips,
my madness peeks,

and stabs my heart,
never together,
shattered apart.
