Clouds
My path is unclear
Guarded by the clouds
Inside my brain
Sometimes I dance across the sky
My head full of iridescent nacreous clouds
Kaleidoscopic
With an air of certainty hanging around me
I know my purpose
And I intend to fulfill it
Yet those moments are rare
And hopelessly optimistic
Sometimes I am numb
My thoughts blurry with dull altostratus
I drift aimlessly
Monotonous and unfeeling
Indecision overpowers all other senses
And my goal is lost
Most of the time I am dark and stormy
My mind crowded with raging cumulonimbi
A hurricane
Rain pours down
And I drown in my own floods
Thunder booming inside my head
Lightning flashing
Electrocuting me
And I lose consciousness
Unable to stay afloat
Because I can't swim
Can't see a way out
My eyes are red and unfocused
And I'm sinking under
