Grey Skies
Shades of grey paint happy faces on my thoughts
As the cool breeze sets my mind on chill
Flashes of light brightens the beyond
If only for a moment
And that moment sits and simmers for a lifetime
I’m at the most calm when there’s rain drops
When everything else slows down
And the dust in the air dissipates
Senses are charmed by those rain drops
Inhibitions lose their ground
And desires gain weight
Second chances are born after rain drops
Brown liquids eroding the traces of yesterday
While dancing down the curves of hills
To streams that swallow their ambitions
Leading them to shores where it all stands still
Waves crashing while the rain drops
Incapable of slowing down
Sporadically gliding from the belt of the horizon
And thrust against the shore the sound
Of slumber set in motion
Whenever the grey sky come
Happy faces on my thoughts
Lights flicker way beyond
Sitting and consuming every moment
Before the grey sky retreat from the sunshine
Keep them bottled up in dreams that last a lifetime
