HE LOOKED UP
Written by: Shayne Soderstrom

he looked up
and he saw the sky was different from before
he looked down
and spat on the old colors on the floor
he knew that things were changing
for the better and he accepted that
he closed his eyes for one last time
and never did look back

he went to get a razor blade
to cut into his finger tip
just to see the color flowing
through his veins and to his lips
no one else had seen the difference
but he knew that they were going to
the sun shined at its brightest on
an ocean of the deepest blue

and he loved
