I would sit in Silence as they wandered past

Pure white Clouds of Obliviousness;

a Sweet pillow of powdered Sugar within the sky.


I couldn't look directly at those beautiful Imperfections

For making eye contact with them was Disaster;

Embracing them was peril.


They would whisper for my attention

Yet cheery laughter made Clear Skies;

and protected me from the Abnormalities they were.


On a day of Fate,

I had finally lifted my eager eyes

And laid them upon the marvelous Blemishes.


They did nothing.

They floated along aimlessly,

And I joyously grew a courage towards them.


On a day of Fate,

I had lifted my timid eyes to the stunning Impurities;

Heart thumping with frantic senselessness,

and this time-


They rained on me.
