When dark clouds appear
All I want are friendly rains
But a strange storm came.

Dark clouds hurtling by
Showing sketches in the sky
Winds storm and thunder

A cloud in the sky
Unassuming, lost and dry
It wandered and died.

today, the sky smells dark and it's pouring out all her tears on earth

Earth oh Earth dances to the blossoming wet tears from Sky

I could fly like the Phoenix I'm supposed to be,
At cloud height, Cloud Nine, see everything
Were it not for the ropes that hold me down
Were it not for the bloodlust, torturous sounds
Were it not for the voices in my head
That sometimes make me wish I were dead

And maybe if I wasn't so critical
Or perhaps just a little less hypocritical
Were it not for the need to be OCPD
Straighten everything, as straight as can be

Checking my back because I'm paranoid,
That someone will appear, push me in the void
And I would swirl and spin, forever trapped
With all lights off, and no time to clap

That I would be that man, the one in black
Who would self-indulge in a self-aimed attack
Who would one day slit an artery, and just lay there
And with open eyes, unseeing, continue to stare

Glaring at the world that held him down
Glaring at the grey sky that never helped him out
Angry in death at those who tormented him, bullies
Maybe I could fly were it not for these,

Things

(1)
Galaxy bathe in milk
waves of blue sea bouncing high
blue whale sailing

(2)
Meteor falling down
lightening flash in the clouds
small child getting scared

(3)
a dark cloud emerges
skylark opening the mouth
frog enjoying rain

(4)
Duck floats on water
sun smiles at its reflection
fisherman sail

(5)
Wind touches her cheeks
rainbow kisses purple steamy lips
vibration in dark clouds

Swept away
by the impetuos wind of the heart
A white cloud
wonders through the blue of the sky
like a restless dream of love.

The sun shines through him
upon the green water of the lake
and in each sparkle of light
I see hope coming alive.
