In the Sky

Loving you is having 

My head to the sky

And making shapes in the

Clouds that come floating by. 

 

And still, with feet placed firmly 

On hard rooted ground, you’ve got 

My mind up here spinning around. 

 

When the storm comes rolling in

I know you won’t be far behind,

Ready to dazzle in a daily explosion

That tears apart thunderous greys

To reveal pastel galaxy before my eyes.  

On the bright side of the moon we reside,

Illuminated by stars a bright blue 

And planets of purple & pink hues. 

 

And I swear I cried colour

When we kissed that night

Under early morning light. 

 

Even long after you leave

I’m warping the hills and the trees

Into a technicolour fantasy –

The closest I’ll ever come to an ecstasy high.
