Dark Skies

As the cold wind rushes by

I feel the premonition of rain

The leaves over turned in the street

The broken cement I walk on

The sad sound of the wind rushing through the air

The sad faces of the people walking by

Illusions of a great day was what I awoke thinking

And yet it is gray

Gloomy and sad

The way my heart feels

The way my soul feels

The gray depths of me

How this day knew of my emotions before I did

Let me cover up my face

Let me paint on what everyone believes I feel

Let them not know of the hurt

The pain

The sorrow deep within

This dilapidated world seems to know exactly what I need

Exactly how I feel

Let me walk in the the empty streets

Let me stroll down dirty alley ways

Dark hallways

And black streets

I feel it

The rain

One droplet on my cheek

One droplet on my hand

One droplet on the ground

If only it would strike thunder

And downpour immediately

So no one could see the tears

So no one could see the anguish

How easy it is to pretend when the sun shines

But once the sun is hidden

When the clouds shroud it

That is when the truth is uncovered

It is truly unveiled

My harsh dark soul needing something to accept its emotions

Oh sky

Release your rain

Release the power in it

The power to wash away

The power to cover

The power to fall

My soul needs someone that is on the same page as me
