the sun starts to come out again and
you can feel your eyes changing colors
you feel yourself grow
like the roots of daffodils and tulips
soaking in today's rain
but when the rain comes
and the clouds hide the sun
you can barely get out of bed
you pull your curtains open again
the gloomy clouds feel more like home
because once you sink,
it's hard to float again
it's difficult to grow
even though that's all you want
