Clouds
I hold my head, and cover my ears
Feel the heat, and feel the tears
I don't want to cry
but I feel so helpless
there are no clouds in the sky
No where to hide
no where to go
No place to reside
no time to know
I could fail
or even worse
I could suceed
but my hope is stale
moldy and deserted
So I feel no need
A week, and I should be fine
these ripples fade over time
but I have no one to guide me
Is there anything of value to even see?
No one to hold me
No one to touch me
no one to hurt me
no one to touch me
I know people have it worse
that they are stronger than I
but can they really not see
that there are no clouds in the sky
I have no honor, I have no pride
I walk alone, but with a confident stride
I don't let anyone see
I can't let anyone near me
I feel pity and more than I should
for those worse off
if I could tell you, I would
but I act tough and a pariah
No one is there any longer
so I find no need to cry
The clouds are all gone
and all that's left
is a blackened sky
No stars, no moon
and the rest will see
all too soon
No one is here
Nothing to fear
No clouds in the sky
No tears to cry
