Living life between distinction.
What's it like living shades of grey?

Vivid nothingness.

Blurred lines of love unresolved.

Looking at the stars,

Hoping and praying for light.

clouds.

always clouds.

Heaven isn't made of clouds.

Heaven is made of hoping and praying.

But in the end you get clouds.

always clouds.

Correct my vision please.

Help me see please.

Lead me there please.

Please.

After the lies veiled by hopes and prayers are revealed

As nothing but clouds masking the stars

There is nothing but the hope that we can move on

Keep walking

Keep looking up

Because maybe

she was worth the clouds.

But you won't know heaven.

Because clouds don't care about heaven.

Clouds care about flight.

Drifting away and as soon as you're close.

They're nothing but mist.

I fall in love with clouds.

I fall out of love with clouds.

I come close to clouds.

But I learn to live in mist.
