The Journey

The day has began
Upon a view 
I ascertain  
Moving rapidly 
Clouds 
Fade in 
Filled with a heavy sigh
Weeping with rain 
They came to
Dance and shower over the
Dormant trees that will sway 
And obey the winds
Washing away 
The arduous corrupted sidewalks 
Of the city streets 
Beaten with masses of humans 
Passing their way to a paycheck 
Of sorts 
This existence we wear
Here 
On our faces 
Are the traces of chronicles
Endured
Purposefully
