Dark Clouds Keep Coming Back
The sun shines brightly outside
Shakes my dull away from within
But nature has its own game to play
Sends the dark clouds to fill my day
Was living in the moment as they wanted
Truly just a moment it only lasted
The day had more hours it could fit
It let the dark clouds spread into it
Each day should last only a moment, I say
I could then have more moment-full days
Wish there were more moments in a day
So the dark clouds had no place to stay
Each day I don’t get a moment
I try and cherish one from past
But there aren’t that many moments
So dark clouds still pour in very fast
It takes too much energy to fight
For moments to last thru day and night
To push back those clouds even so slight
I made peace, I let dark clouds now hug me tight
