its not fair for the sky to be mean to the clouds for crying so much its especially unfair because the sky cries every night too silver sparkly tears washing off blue eyeshadow but its ok when the sky does it because the sky pretty-cries the clouds ugly cry and thats not okay with the sky its not fair that no one likes it when the clouds cry because the clouds only cry because they are heavy and want some of the weight to go away the sky cries and everyone loves the sky maybe because the sky is older and can smile again when it is done because the sky cries to get what it wants but the clouds dont know why they cry they cant help it they are so heavy and it hurts so much to carry all the raindrops and the sky does not care the sky says, “but you look so light and fluffy so i think you are not heavy at all i think you just cry because you want people to talk about you and you know unless you cry no one talks about the clouds” the clouds try to hold their raindrops in now even though it hurts and they are very heavy because they live in the sky and they must do what the sky says when the sky is watching but of course they cant hold it all and the sky gets mad when they let out all the raindrops they were holding so the clouds try to explain “I’m sorry the rain was heavy and i had to let it go” and the sky does not listen the sky says “you are so dramatic you do not have to cry so much over something so small” but the clouds do not understand because the clouds have never had a reason to cry not a big one or a small one they just do so the clouds start holding more and more and more raindrops they dont let themselves have thunderstorms anymore it hurts so bad so so so bad and the sky still does not seem to understand that the clouds just want to not be heavy the clouds wonder if the sky will miss them when they are gone they suppose that the sky will be glad to be rid of the rain and then the clouds go away forever.
