Analysis of Clouded Visions



Leaning over my balcony
Trying to understand why;
Those dark ominous clouds
Linger over me up in the sky.
Pressing firmly against the horizon
As if it were a part of this world;
Trying to consume the lives
Of every man, boy and girl.
Looking for, seeking just one ray of lite
As i pray the sun will shine;
Remembering my life over the past year
Has caused me to open my eyes.
Now I invision my life
In a totally different way;
I've began to cherish the little
Things each and every day.
To this day, as I approach each one,
No more clouds cover the sky;
Which lets me believe, the clouds I preceived
Were only consumed in my mind!
