Moon of clouds

By: Robert Nicholson

 

My heart is like the moon looking

Over a thousand stars

For it shines through the sky and

Looks like it’s in charge

And no matter what you do nothing

Can hide it when it glows

 

But like the moon on a

Cloudy night

You can not see it quite so

Well for it’s covered

Covered with a memory of

A forgotten past

 

But when it can break free

Finally all it sees

Is loneliness and doubt that

It shall ever shine freely

For the past of forgotten clouds

Linger by

And I wish I had my star

By my side

In the darkness of a dark

And cloudy sky
