Clouded

Clouded by emotions,
Easy to react,
Sensitivity is a handicap,
Flawed if seen from afar.

Like a storm they come,
They destroy, leave everything unsettled and behind,
Worries start to climb,
Rain begins to drop.

Clouds come in different colors,
White, gray, even black,
And so do emotions,
One must learn to adapt.

Clouded with a chance of rain from the eyes,
Clouded is the weather for tonight,
When will the day come with sunlight?
When will I see the bright stars?
When will I stop seeing clouds?
When will my rainbow shine?

Far away at sea,
Storms dwell,
They reside,
And yet they coexist
With the whales,
Biggest mammals on Earth,
Biggest heart.
Big their love for the sea, the mind.

Majestic creatures must survive,
The waves, the temper of the sea,
When at risk, they sink,
look for refuge deep inside.
Clouds will never scare them,
For they are strong willed,
Strong hearts.

Clouded is the sea,
Clouded is the mind,
Yet some whales dare to swim,
Dare to play with the sea,
They make love underneath the waves,
They are one with the sea,
But they never let the sea push them around.
If only the whales could see,
The clouds that obfuscate my sight,
Then the love between the sea and the whale,
Will be only calm.
