i love the sky

don't let me be gone
sometimes i feel like fading away
after all this time
nothing is holding me down

i don't want to be forgotten
i am too afraid of no one remembering me
that's why i write everything down
my heart is locked and words hold the key

i love the sky
i love watching the clouds and the moon and the stars and the sun
if i am to be remembered
please remember how much i love the sky

remember me for my positive attitude
not for the moments when i was sad
not for the times i didn't reply
not for the nights i didn't sleep

remember me for my good grades
not for the tear stained pages of homework
not for the coffee i drank to keep me awake
not for the constant stress to be perfect

remember me for my smile
not for the way my voice cracks when i cry
not for the days i couldn't get out of bed
not for the bruises and scars covering my body

remember me for being happy
not for the constant feeling i had of not being good enough
not for me cancelling plans
not for all the times i ignored everyone

remember me for all of my writings
not for all the times i felt like a failure
not for me never bothering to brush my hair
not for my messed up voice screaming lyrics to songs i don't know

remember me for all the times i didn't give up
not for the too tight hugs i give cause i don't want to let go
not for everytime i lost
not for whenever i tried too hard and messed up

remember me for all the love i gave
not for my broken laugh
not for my deepest, darkest thoughts
not for the constant way i tap my foot or hands

remember me for my art
not for all the times i yelled too loud
not for me never knowing what to say
not for my insecurities

only remember a part of me
because only a part of me was good

the sky paints us a beautiful picture constantly, there is no doubt that it isn't a masterpiece. . .
