Looking at Dark Clouds
Dark Clouds, when they have gone it’s a long dark night

Looking at Dark Clouds
Looking at dark clouds forming
Over the town tonight
Street lamps start trembling softly
Losing their fading light
Children rush through the pavements
People pull curtains tight
The wind begins its warning
Something feels not quite right
I stand beside the window
Coffee gone cold in hand
Thinking about the damage
Life never truly planned
Thunder rolls through the distance
Like anger learning to speak
Memories crawl from hiding
Finding the parts most weak
Some storms live in the heavens
Some stay locked in our chest
Both arrive without warning
Neither one lets us rest
Rain starts carving the rooftops
Washing the dirt away
Still some pain stains deeper
No matter how long it stays
Dark clouds keep moving slowly
Heavy with all they know
Carrying lost tomorrows
Over the world below
Morning may break the silence
Sunlight may reach the street
Yet somewhere inside my spirit
Those dark clouds still repeat
