Morning Fog
As soon as I rise to start finding my way
you are a barrier that stands before me.
I wish to reach better places,
but I can’t see further than you.
What my eyes tell me
isn’t so promising; they’re deceiving.
Maybe, with just a step further,
I might fall into a pit.
I might step on a puddle,
slip and fall.
For a while,
I start to see lights and passing cars.
A smile breaks from my face,
a sigh of relief leaves my lips.
But as I start to walk briskly
to get myself away,
I can no longer see again.
It’s just a misty cloud all over
that appears to stretch on for miles.
I don’t need you Morning Fog,
without you, I see better.
Without you Morning Fog,
I live better.
