A sunset lost for the want to express it.

Paradise in a single, solitary moment, given to the
abyssmal despair of loneliness.

Part of humanity, but separate—
Cut from the umbilical thread
That nourishes it. _

Destined to be an individual —
agi Not just humanity.
“Fractured, detached, severed;

Clouds: The loveless children of the sky.
Part of the sky, but separate—

 
 
 
  
 

 
 

m& Alienated from the mother form that creates them.

Destined to be a cloud—

Not just the sky.

Qualified, compartmentalized, categorized;
Label it: Nimbus.

A cloud, a lonely person, are one together.
Both crying out at their existence.

Do raindrops exist if no one sees them fall?

| Do teardrops exist if no one sees them shed?

Sometimes | befall a recollection

Words I’ve wished, wished I’d spoken

Sometimes I’m needing for a friend

Words that are sometimes emotions
One day here one day gone

Feelings I’ve wished, wished I’d spoken
Sometimes I’m bleeding for a friend
Fearing though just what I’ve known
Thinking thoughts, thoughts not spoken
Sometimes I’m needing for a friend

A new idea suppressed for the desire to have it understood.
