Clouds

I.

 

The heart is clumsy,

 

our thoughts provoking disaster

 

when pulling on the wrong strings

 

before the storm, and after.

 

II.

 

You

 

and I,

 

encompass the sky

 

that hovers above us

 

holding clouds that serve purpose

 

to embellish or destroy

 

waiting for the wind

 

to mould us into strange shapes

 

tugging at others’ curiosity

 

not knowing what we are

 

or where we’re going.

 

III.

 

Muffled speech,

 

blinding weather in his eyes,

 

today we are not raining together

 

drop by drop

 

He falls and changes,

 

beauty into anger,

 

I await on a lonely ground

 

to catch him.

 

IV.

 

We exist in all shades,

 

unpredictable,

 

beautiful,

 

converging into one another

 

calming the anxious souls

 

that we transport to the heavens above.

 

V.

 

I watch the sun and moon alternate,

 

natural occurrences, I notice

 

just like the thoughts

 

that feel like clouds in my head

 

when my heart reminds me

 

of him

 

at an ungodly time of night

 

striking me like lightening,

 

thunder echoing between these ears

 

that long for the voice of an angel instead.
