The Happy Clouds

I wish I was a cloud
They're free to fly through time and space
Going whereever the wind takes them
Trapped, though, wherever the wind takes them
Perhaps I do not wish to be a cloud

I wish I was a cloud
Blending in with the atmosphere
Surrounded by all those who feel the same
Lost, though, are individuallity and self
Perhaps I do not wish to be a cloud

I wish I was a cloud
When tired and heavy with too much inside
Pouring it out and sharing it with the world
Only, though, to be filled again to the breaking point
Perhaps I do not wish to be a cloud

I wish I was a cloud
Taking life as it comes
Seeing all there is to see
Never, though, experiencing life
Perhaps I do not wish to be a cloud

Alone

Alone, I climb
Up molehills of life
Daring, caring
Making them mountains
I climb alone

Alone, I roll
Down hills of life
Laying, playing
Enjoying the pain
I roll alone

Alone, I wander
Through desserts of life
Questing, jesting
With my mirrage
I wander alone

Alone, I drown
In waters of life
Teeming, streaming
All with the flow
I drown alone

Alone, I am
Throughout this life
Living, giving
All of my self
I am alone

I am your rock

I am your rock
just a bit weathered
You won't see
my crumbling within

Stop worrying about me
You don't need more
on your shoulders
while you're standing on mine

It was only one tear
and I put it back
Turn away, I'm okay
Well, I will be

Okay, pick me up
carry my burden
But only beacause
you need me with you

Okay, put me down
but don't let me go
You need me, you need me
I know you do

Crowded Isolation

Each day I live
I feel the ache
Something is missing
I'm hollow inside

Each day I give
Give way to the ache
Cover it so no one
Sees the real me

Each day I act
I forget that I'm fake
I go through the motions
That make me look sane

Each day I know
I make the mistake
I conform my thoughts
To be just like you

Each day I sigh
How much more can I take?
Crowded isolation
No one understands

Each day I cry
It makes my heart break
No one can express
Just how they feel


Each day I bet
Kepp raising the stake
Trusting even more
Of my soul to be seen

Each day I sing
For my own sake
Expressing my soul,
Emotions, me

Each day I pray
For those who don't make
Each moment count
Life is too short
