My Turn To Grow

My head rests upon the sky

the thoughts...

clouds that drift away:

My intent was high

what other should it be?

A thought of you,

in the sky

my clouds blow away

Like you.

the sky still stays

like me.

An old man listens to me speak

then acknowledges my pain.

But then he looks way

and says this to me:

"You ARE the sky, and that sky stays.

As for the clouds; they are BUT clouds,

and clouds do blow away."

He has used my own words to describe me.

I think

and

understand

I look at the old man and realize

he is me.
