One day these grey clouds that linger above Will give up and allow their rain to fall The droplets like an echo of my love A shadow of the leaves that fell in fall I long to reach up with my hands and grab Those hideous clouds I wish would crash Your sign is cancer, the sign of the crab It seems we are not meant to be, we clash But I know your eyes, eyes I can't evade For that I become a slave to that grey They bear into me as if to invade I have no complaint, I only say stay My hearts the flame that you always enrage Trapping me in passions bottomless cage

Sonnet
One day these grey clouds that linger above Will give up and allow their rain to fall The droplets like an echo of my love A shadow of the leaves that fell in fall I long to reach up with my hands and grab Those hideous clouds I wish would crash Your sign is cancer, the sign of the crab It seems we are not meant to be, we clash But I know your eyes, eyes I can't evade For that I become a slave to that grey They bear into me as if to invade I have no complaint, I only say stay My hearts the flame that you always enrage Trapping me in passions bottomless cage
This is my first attempt at writing a sonnet I don't know any cancer signs... it just needed to rhyme
