I'm in the sky
With a knife
Stabbing at the clouds
Massive gashes
The belly of the nimbus
Bleeding out
Its cries are thunder
Its tears are rain
The sky is pain
I strike as lighting

These gray skies in my eyes
Are how the storm in my soul
Tries to escape


I'm in the wind
Howling with the trees
Your whole house quakes
Foundation shakes
My whisper in the breeze
Becomes a scream
Something you can feel
But never hold
My turbulence
Blowing bitter cold

Only may my tears
Become the clouds

**I want them to rain on you

I would want nothing more,

Than to hear you knocking at my door,

You want nothing to do with me I'm sure.




I cant get you out of my head,

I lie alone, awake in bed,

I can don't know what to do instead.




There is only one of you,

And one of me,

I thought we fit together perfectly.




My edges were too rough,

My heart was too tough,

My love wasn't enough.




I don't blame you for the pain,

I remember that day it rained,

When I scooted to my left and you to your right,

But now I cry at night.

Close the curtains
On this last act
Call home the trains
Bring me back

Time has eloped
With my dreams
I've learnt to cope
On meagre means

Preach the truth
To he who hears
Dig up the roots
Bury your cares

Hide my letters
In an open box
Untie my fetters
Use all the locks

Life is a paradox
Running to its death
Watching all the clocks
To be the last one on earth.
I like the fact that I can have rhyme and beat even when I'm not exactly sure what I mean :-)

It's been a long while
Since I held a goofy smile
One that exceeds my cheeks.
