Clouds Up In the Sky

Thoughts swirl around like clouds in the sky. I am surrounded by a world much larger than I. I close my eyes and then I’m up in that cloud, As the clouds part it’s like lifting a shroud. I see down below, all appears so small, Visions of crashing, hope I don’t fall. I drift and swirl and then it’s not clear, Maybe my fate grabbed the wheel to steer? Night clouds move in as it gets dark, Shadows appear tainting my heart. A cloud makes a shining light go out, Shadows become this sea of doubt. Thoughts seem to change just like the clouds, Truth and light arrive hope they’re allowed. I can’t break free as my mind goes numb, All seems to be lost so I want some. The clouds get thicker and I can’t see, Although the future is right before me. Maybe my thoughts just get in the way? Yesterday joins in as a part of today. The clouds swirl in circle like a merry-go –round, They sneak right up on you without even a sound. Some clouds disappear but soon they return, I look for the answer around the next turn. The clouds part and the sun comes back, I find myself getting back on track. Thoughts flow freely through my head, I open my eyes and rise instead.
