Second Hand Sky I am a thrift store poet with second hand sky blue eyes I leave a song in your pocket and I let all your caged birds fly I waltz down a street of dreams wearing a second hand sky disguise love is never quite as it seems still I know a hopeful sun will rise I believe the promise of you even if everything turns out to be a lie I will believe I will believe in the promise of you underneath a second hand sky blue underneath a second hand sky blue sky I'm a restless soul drifter singing second hand sky blues my heart's a hapless shapeshifter and my head's just second hand news I believe the promise of love and even if every rose may die on the vine I will believe I'll be your relief the sweet promise of love fly the second hand sky like a dove fly the second hand sky until love shines I am a thrift store poet I waltz down a street of dreams and oh I believe the promise of you even if everything turns out to be a lie I will believe I will believe in the promise of you underneath a second hand sky blue underneath a second hand sky blue sky The sweet promise of love fly the second hand sky like a dove fly the second hand sky until love shines I believe the promise of you and even if every rose must die on the vine still I'll believe I'll be your relief underneath a second hand sky blue underneath a second hand sky blue sky underneath a second hand sky I believe in you "Whatever makes you weird is probably your greatest asset"-Joss Whedon |

My kind of writing, soul drifter. I admire your attitude, your persona, and most of all the expert posting of your lines. GREAT write! ~ If they give you ruled paper, write sideways. ~ |

Feels like your poem matches your name..I sense a kind of desperate or (hopeless?) longing unfulfilled. I hope I have interpreted this right |

Sounds like this poem is in desperate need of a guitar. Sounded like a great song to me. ~L |
