The Sky That Cried
------ Su Huilun
You’ve always been far too carefree, as free as the wind
Leaving my heart at a loss as you blow by
I let you go, to the freedom you love
While I become a sky that has cried
I’ve always been far too hesitant when it comes to you
Unable to keep up with this age of boldness and abandon
I set myself free after the rain has passed
While you become a rainbow streaking across the sky
The sky has its reasons for raining
You and I have our unavoidable differences
Who can go on hiding their heartbreak forever?
Who doesn’t want, once the storm has passed,
To leave fear behind and find forgiveness again?
The sky has its reasons for clearing
You and I have our unavoidable excuses
Who can keep saying things they don’t mean?
Who can wait without knowing what they’re waiting for?
Who can force it? Who can hold on
When love is ready to leave?
