How high until sky?

How high until sky?

I must admit,maybe zoning out while drivin down i94hwy isn't the safest/brightest idea..
But during my "get away" I couldn't help but to notice the sky and how blue yet empty it was,
It was one of those days where u couldn't see a cloud for miles n miles..

I sit there,
(coasting still at 70mph)
Thinking how high the sky goes?
Going a little bit more in depth I begin to question "sky" entirely!

"How far until the simple (high) actually becomes SKY?"

Is it a tall building high?
Could it be just before the clouds?
Or is it only above the clouds ?

Tickled by my new random though,I smile because I know as soon as I ask a friend wat they thought I'd get that same ol'..."Pat wat the F***!?" I get ever so often I ask about the things I wonder..

Coming back to my question I realize maybe sky "isn't"..
Maybe sky isn't a label for a specific area of altitude like the stratusphere or something..

Maybe sky is just a measure of distance beyond ones knowledge of reality..

So desperate to be able to LABLE what
They can't explain,we come up with a universal answer good enough to keep everyone else from questioning..

Ha,

Either one should think the same or I'm crazy.

"Sky"

What's your theory?

Musiq & Rain..(The Constant Melody)

Sitting here,
Listening to "God Bless the Child" play through my speakers
Puting me at ease is a constant rhythm..
Saxophones,piano, & a low bass guitar steady consuming my thoughts and body as I lay across my bed.
I can't help but to think of you,
AS THE RAIN DROPS..

For so long I waited for someone to make me feel this way,
You know,
Butterflies,anxiously awaiting your call,hearing ur voice and Knowing ur smiling when I hear u respond..
I notice the simple things,
AS THE RAIN DROPZ

(LL Cool J's "I need love" begins to play)

R&B & thoughts of you may just be the sweetest combination..

Most men hide their emotions when it comes to showing how strongly they feel about a woman,
And don't get me wrong id like to join them also to save myself from vulnerabilty,
But with you I feel a sense of safeness allowing me to void out the foolish ego I may have
AS THE RAIN DROPZ

(LL still playing.....)

Hol up...I figure shit, I need love too !
So why not have YOU give it to me?
Its kind've funny how a simple connection between two people can change both's normalcy
Do things they usally wouldn't,
Say things they dare not to around anyone else
I ponder all of this..
AS THE RAIN DROPZ

(Xscape's "Who can I run to comes on)

"Who can I run to when I need Love"?
.."To fill this empty space..."

________________________________
Its a shame that one can have the potential to Love so strong,
But be so weak with holding on....
But still..
All this while,
THE RAIN DROPZ

(LSG's "My Body plays next)

Just as I think about easing up to you,
Of course this song comes on..
"My body all over your body babe"...
Can't help but to want to wander my hands around every inch of you,.
But your not here,
Better yet..
You dnt even exist...

So I just sit & wish..
AS THE RAIN DROPZ

Something Special

I remember..

I was at the football game,
Shoulda been following score by score
But you know us boyz,
Instead of jumping up in down when our team scored a touchdown
We gave high fives when we agreed on who was the finest cheerleader

Looking down the line I notice all the old girls im used 2 seeing
And then I see you..

Caremel skin,french braids with designs,the cutest smile.
Also I remember you most because of the funny way ur ears curled a little more than normal..

But none the less very cute..

I stare for a moment because I've never seen you before
"She's probably just a lil freshman"..

And of course you were...

I remember getting on my bus after school and seeing u there..
Looking all goofy & smiling with ur easy going brown eyes.
I knew who you knew,talked to who you talk to, But we've never spoken...?

We sat together and chatted until my stop.

With no clue of how important ud become to me, we continued to get to know each other little by little..

Next thing u know im the 1st boy to be welcome in ur home that's NOT related to anyone there.
Your mom was strick but she liked me from day 1.

We become the best of friends..
Talking about any and everything.
Able to be myself around you 100%
You never judged me
You never negativley critqued me
You only stood by me through watever I was going through.

Throughout relationships between our girlfriends & boyfriends we never worried because we both knew that it didn't matter who was "current" in our lives because neither one of us would leave..

You've watched me grow from a backpack carrying,afro wit the pick stuck in it,jersey wearing little BOY
Into wat I must say a decent young MAN..

Un the flipside I must admit,you've blossomed into a more beautifu WOMAN than I really expected..
I tried to protect you by giving you all the knowledge I had but some things u have 2 learn on ur own..
Guys took advantage of you
And used ur kindness for weakness..

But I always thought they were absolutley INSANE to not be able to see the incredible person you are..
U'd give before you receive and help before your even spoken to..

Sometimes I do wonder..
& also I wonder do you (still)
But only time will tell.
Anyone who gets you will be one of the luckier guys
And no matter who it is,
I'll always be there when u need me

More than just a friend,
Ur like my other half..

I love you..
