A Cloudy Day



The Sun Is Shining
Behind cumulus love and gray scale memories

The Sun Is Shining
Behind me

I am aware that behind the drear is the friendship I once knew.  But today I feel cumulus and gray.  I am overcast with the disappointment of unfaithful empathy.  They had it.  They had it.  And they had it.  But never me.  Strangers are offered an open palm to hold with one hand and with the other I am left to pry open a fist.  Each time I hugged you hoping to release the clench of your fingers I felt lighter on my feet. Did you know that loneliness floats? It drifts in an achromatic sky as gathered tears.
