Cascading Sorrows
I look out the window
To see the clouds shed their tears
Painting everything in a gloomy color
As they pound on the earth’s surface
I open the window
To let the cold air brush my hair
It emphasizes my anguish
It highlights my despair
Stop pouring, oh rain
For my emotions
Have been, since long, buried in me
They hide behind a concrete wall
So, let it go, dear clouds
Move on like you normally do
For you will forget this soon
And will only see
The complacent façade
