Creamy Clouds

I was dreaming my life was at stake Insomnia screaming for me to awake Because the past kept me up at night In His tent, I am enlightened with His LIGHT Somehow... Someday, we will run away from the chaos and embrace peace that is at hand Woke up from a dream I repent and I'm at ease I long for His mirth I have grieved raindrops It is almost time to leave I have morphed into snow Creamy clouds collide Foam rises from the bathtub Swimming in bliss ride Water drowns my grief Gives me brief relief instead Sky's blue, so are you Melting in your arms Blanket me with comfort dirt I bud in springtime Winter frost got me lost Frozen...rooted to the spot Break the ice...despised Frost bites of your LUV Made me feel above seven You, the vibrant dove Now, a winter crow Cooing at the break of dusk Lust turns to mere dust Fire burns of your HATE Made me feel below zero You, the dark vulture Summer is in flames I am in the back-burner You called me vile names Thought you loved me back You departed from my touch Time unwinds this time Brought down by envy Move on - it's the hardest thing Sky's black - so am I Creamy rain-clouds frown Water descends...down the drain I'm the ground...green-brown Pouring sun saved me Before I dug a self-grave I have morphed into sea Cold on my bed...please... Please forgive me, Lord Most High I float above Earth Reality's demise alarms me Alas, the world and I don't see Because the creamy clouds of our fantasy It doused us in sugar-coated delight and sunlit glee Why now? Someday, we'll be in liberty's land

Noticeably impactful choice of words throughout. Hell, the "Creamy Clouds" part alone was enough to spark my imagination. Nice descriptive piece, J. What was the motive to write this piece, dare I ask?

Glad I sparked inspiration in your life and fantastic imagination as well. My motive was my daily struggle of insomnia, suicidal thoughts of the past and depression and rising from it (I'm bipolar too). Have a blissful day.
