The sky is wide enough
for every bird,
every cloud,
every wandering dream.
It stretches endlessly,
offering room
for every breath.
Yet loneliness follows
different laws.
A single absence
can shrink the world.
A single name
can turn open spaces
into narrow walls.
The sky may remain infinite,
but inside the suffocating loneliness
of one forgotten heart,
even eternity
can feel too small.
