Under the same sky
You and I
Live under the same sky
We toil, love and laugh
Under the very same sky
And we stand
On the this blue and white ball together
We hurt and we cry for the same reasons
We laugh like children when we can
And we suffer when times are bad
Together, you and I, understand one another
And we misunderstand too
Misunderstandings grow into monsters, stronger than steel
When all we ever need
Are kind words to wrap us like silk
To comfort us, to reassure
I loved you then
I love you now
And I will love you forever
Under this same sky

2. Reminds me of An American Tale
Performed by Phillip Glasser (Fievel) & Betsy Cathcart (Tanya)

Fv: Somewhere out there,
beneath the pale moonlight,
someone's thinking of me and loving me tonight.

Ty: Somewhere out there,
someone's saying a prayer,
that we'll find one another in that big somewhere out there.

(*)Ty: And even though I know how very far apart we are,
it helps to think we might be wishing on the same bright star.

Fv: And when the night wind starts to sing a lonesome lullaby,
it helps to think we're sleeping underneath the same big sky.

Together: Somewhere out there,
if love can see us through,
then we'll be together, somewhere out there,
out where dreams come true.

Character key:
Fv = Fievel, Ty = Tanya, Tg = Tiger.

3. On this blue and white ball
the Earth is so large what is the distance between us? It is nothing really, we are all indeed under the same sky, all of us are essentially on the same spot from the point of view of the rest of the universe.

Well done, thanks for sharing your poem.

5. Yes it is...very nice poem...
Did you write it? It's very good. I hope you start feeling better soon. I learned several years ago that this world is a cruel world. At least now, I'm prepared for all of the cruelty inflicted upon me.

And you better believe, I recognize when it's happening and I'll never let it happen again. There are no mistakes..only lessons.

Hope you feel better.

:hug:
