Orange Sky
Orange sky,
That wicked red that burns against all life,
Scorching that soul in our eyes,
And driving all men mad,
All sane notions cast into the sea,
Happiness left to fizzle,
And fade,
Into that haze,
Orange sky,
That leaves me wanting your embrace,
Leaves me to cry,
Pray,
Rage,
And Drown in my faith,
Read the rest of the poem Show less
That orange sky,
Which wraps around the mountains,
Teaches all that life forgot,
Tortures me with all its might,
And leaves me all alone in July,
Orange sky,
Leaves me with a heartache,
Leaves me to rage,
That lovely orange sky,
Who doesn’t say goodbye,
Leaves no trace,
I’ll miss you in the night,
And wait for you in the morning,
To fill me once more with life.
