they told me the sky was my limit,
then they dragged me through the mud.
they beat my brain up to dust,
flipped me upside down.
but, with dirt in my eyes,
i stared at the clouds
and my breath suddenly stopped:
the golden clouds, kissed by the sun,
stretching across the blue, blue sky,
brought me peace;
even for just a single moment
with the breeze softly brushing against me
their soft voices convinced me,
"You will be alright."
I am trying to make peace with, perhaps, too many things at once.
Simple moments sometimes bring the best possible comfort. ♡
