Tumultuous, the clouds as they sigh,

Gray, like days, they go drifting by

Black, as a moonless, starless night,

Water from my eyes, blurs my sight

Cascading down, perhaps in vain

Are they my tears or just the rain?

Gazing out my window
The gray skies fit my mood
The air heavy with the threat
Of a storm, but is this fury
Brewing inside me or is it
Just a lingering haze
Not really worth my energy
And I impatiently wait for the
Rain to wash it all away

The clouds, though darkening,

Gray, hold back their tears, silently

Moving, across the skies, waiting

For the right moment, the one they

Hope never comes, the one when

The deluge of angst and fear, takes

Over common sense, drowning it

It is then, and only then, they sigh

And release, the pouring of the rain

Chasing Autumn

No longer blue, skies turning gray
Colorful atmosphere drifting away
Melancholy thoughts invade, unkind
Ominous, clouds float, past my mind

But what if the blue returned, for a day
Bringing the warmth of the sun
Would we be happier, brighter, this way?
Enlightened by what has been done

No, the sky will go back to its colorless display
And our minds will continue to wander, astray
Chasing the unreachable, wondering why
The colors of autumn must pass, quickly by
