When I watch the clouds dissolve in the sky
I think of you, I see you
your beautiful mind, your radiant soul
maybe, just maybe
that’s the reason I run to my window and lay my head on its sill when I’m sure I’m screaming my last cry for help
into the vastness of absolute nothing
I don’t want to leave you screaming at the sky
But why should I continue to be left in defeat
Because just like the clouds
You’ll come
and
You’ll go
I wanted to share this piece because it’s the first piece I’ve written in a while when feeling down. I forgot how helpful writing is when your brain is scrambled and fighting against you. Mental health is so important and I’m so happy I discovered writing as one of my coping mechanisms. I hope that this piece will encourage a reader of mine to write the next time they feel down like we all do at times. It’s so relieving to get your thoughts down on paper and out of your mind. If you haven’t tried it, DO IT and drink some water while you do. 🙂
I love the way you connected the clouds to the start and finish, it really tied to piece together like the best Christmas present. Also, I appreciate the message you are sending and wish you the best. 🙂
Girl you are so right about penning down your feelings, sometimes it’s just the easiest and most effective way to be honest with yourself – especially when you don’t plan to share it with others. You are endlessly talented, and I cannot wait to see what you come up with next. I love you!!
This is beautiful and raw, I appreciate you for sharing your work!!
