Clouded Thoughts

Venture forth, and explore these emotions, they go a long way

The clouds have hovered through my mind since the very first day

This fog is unpredictable, as the skies weep

No matter what I think about, it’s hard to sleep

You’ll ask me how I am,

is the answer “okay”?

Like an unstable dancer, I’ll often move without grace

But I’ve resolved to keep on moving at my own pace

The future is approaching with a wistful embrace

When weeks are filled by actions that can’t be erased

You’ll ask me how I am,

is the answer “okay”?

We’ll thrash about, to express our discontent

Scream and shout, in this world which provides us with constant torment

We can always answer back with our best intent

My mind is open, because I don’t know about so many things

Like an angel I feel the need to spread my wings

I get excited and my ascent goes too far

My wings will burn to ashes and then I’ll fall

You’ll ask me how I am,

is the answer “okay”?

As the storm approaches, I hang values out to dry

If reality is nothing but a noble lie

When I see you through my mirror, I need to know why

You’ll ask me how I am,

is the answer “okay”?
