The Blackness of the Sky

By Angel Left Behind

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

I look into the sky only to see blackness I want to feel the warmth of the sun, yet I can only see clouds To be happy, to see the sky again is what I long for But it's been so long that it seems impossible I feel warm drops streaming from the clouds on my forhead And when I open my eyes I discover that what I feel is my own sullen blood The clouds love to taunt me and make me feel unworthy They remind me of what a disappointment I am And when I forget they remind me by screaming or saying nothing at all The sky is full of emptiness, only bad things surround it I hate to look at the sky because I am reminded of what I let the clouds do to me And when my warm, sullen blood falls upon my forhead I am reminded of how the clouds make me bleed my life away The clouds come in and the black sky gets blacker And no matter how hard the sky tries to push the clouds away The clouds will always come back to remind me of my disappointmentThis is exactly how my life is.... if you didn't get the metaphors the sky is my soul and the clouds are my parents and basically anyone else who brings me down...
