THe Bright Blue Sky

THe Bright Blue Sky

A Poem by Nyx Myrkur
"

One can see it, but never truly appreciate it for what it is until it's too late.

"
The sky, a canvas of painted blue
Shades of it in every hue
Opaque shades of radiant white
Drifted across the linen, bright
Other days, the linen is covered in dull gray hues
Chasing the vibrant blues
We take seeing the beautiful paint for granted
Some wouldn't notice if it vanished
But the dying soldier's final thoughts and breath
When they are only moments away from death
Is to see the brilliant blue sky again
Eyes blank, heart dead
Never to open or see the sky ever again
