overcast

the sky of my soul, the weather of my heart.

sky 0209251250

they drop their burdens like dust, while i carry the stones they ignore.

sky 2508251510

in the corners of my mind i turn cruel, and i fear the mirror it holds to me.

weather 2408251207

my feelings are heavy, muted, in-between, not destructive, but not bright either.

overcast 2408250000

somewhere beyond the gray,
i imagine the sun
still waiting to break through,
its warmth searching
for the right moment
to touch us both again.

what was once passing
still flickers quietly,
as if the clouds themselves
are keeping it safe,
guarding the light
until we are ready.

and if the sky should clear,
if time should bend
and paths return,
i would not miss it twice.

i would gather the light,
call it by your name,
and let the weather of my heart
finally rest in you.

sky 2208251343

i uncovered desires i never named, revealed by a porcelain heart.

overcast 190825000

we were never a story,
only scattered lines,
moments so small
they might have gone unnoticed,
yet they stayed.

i did not see it then,
how your presence
shifted the air,
how the ordinary
felt touched with light.

now the memory arrives
like a gray horizon,
not storm, not sun,
just the tender weight
of something unfinished,
hovering in the sky of my soul.

you are a silence I keep,
a soft overcast
that lingers,
not asking to be spoken,
only to be remembered.

the mall drowned in restless youth, their noise heavier than walls.

sky 1308251031

i spoke with my rights in hand, yet they answered with walls built of their own rules.

sky 1308250021

i laid my battles and victories at the highest table, hoping they would finally see me.

sky 0308252331

so close i can taste the horizon, yet it fades with every step.
