Why don't you look at the sky?

Why don't you look at the sky ?
Look at the sky
The enormity of space,
and the insignificance of your tiny battles.
Into lives you haven't lived
long-lost love and moments unborn
To desires what is forbidden
Touch and warmth of someone numbed forever
losses and longing go on night after night
So much you cared for has been carried off
In a time of all,
Why don't you look at the sky ?
Look at the sky
The enormity of space,
and the insignificance of your tiny battles.
Why do you imagine the death of youth and charm
Where are the dreams dreamt and words promised
What is this scent in the air that was once sweet
but now smelt like lifeless leaves.
How is the time fading faster as you breathe
In a time of all,
Why don't you look at the sky ?
Look at the sky
The enormity of space,
and the insignificance of your tiny battles.
You and I are people of God
asking for all the world, its beauties and its injuries.
God is a strange man, brutal
as he puts us in the prison with beautiful windows.
Above our heads, as far up as clouds
Who can say, What it means, whether it protects?
In a time of all,
Why don't you look at the sky ?
Look at the sky
The enormity of space,
and the insignificance of your tiny battles.
