Clouds
Clouds,
Beautiful clouds.
Stay with me,
For you are the only one to understand my
World.
A world full of darkness and
Despair.
A world covered in
Dark beauty that few can
Appreciate.
Cry with me.
Rage with me.
And be silent with me,
My friends.
Beautiful Darkness
A beauty in the
Darkness,
A beauty beyond the
Light.
A beauty few remember,
And soon forget.
The darkness of the night,
The music of the
Night,
The light of the
Moon,
The twinkling of every star.
The mystery,
The love,
The beauty, hidden within the
Darkness,
Waiting to be
Found.
Star
A star,
Glistening and gleaming
In the night sky.
Alone in the void,
Calling out for its friends,
But none answer.
Doomed to walk the world alone
All the days of its life.
