Clouds
Thickly spread across the sky,
Mounted up so high,
How quickly they go by!Up there my feelings lie,
Yet down here am I,
And I cannot get away.Would that I were borne on the current of the wind,
This stationary life I would transcend
In the sky-river’s bend.Up there to my feelings tend
But lose myself to the corner’s trend,
And I cannot get away.How low I would swoop
Only to feel my heart droop
That we are stuck in this forever-loop.Up there where my feelings coup,
We all march on like a troop,
And I cannot get away.Standing still is our foe,
Defeated effortlessly by the air’s unending flow
So much so that I long for the ground below!Down there my feelings go
In tears or snow,
And I cannot get away.
Something I rewrote in an attempt to get noticed by other users on Deviant Art. At least when people randomly fave my stuff, it’ll be relatively high quality.
