Grey Skies by Neetu Malik

Grey Skies

 I should have cut a piece of blue sky
 or maybe two

 one for each pocket 
 the last time it stretched 
 above me
 unblemished and clear,
 but I forgot it wouldn't last--
 no, it never does. 

 At least I have the memory 
 of its cerulean loveliness
 when the days are dark

 faint though it is 
 it still hovers like a lost star
 searching for a place in 
 my universe.
