Gray Clouds

                                                                                

I remember when my sky was 

Full of clouds that were gray.  

When with nobody 

I wanted to play. 

When alone I wanted

to stay. 

But then one day

those gray clouds went away. 

And you chose

to remain.

                                                                                  

You chose to stay.  

Now I remember 

those gray clouds

that brought you

around.

I thought my cloudy skies

would make you

say goodbye

But

you stayed.

Just like how 

I asked 

for 

When I prayed. 

When in my bed

next to you

I laid. 

With gray clouds 

above my head. 

The cold rain they

Dropped upon

My cheeks

kept me from sleep. 

But that was then.
