Clouds of Our Mind

White streaks of paint on a blue canvas.
Images in my head of a day with pleasant skies,
Rather than the thunder  clouds that plague our minds.
The booming anger is unnecessary in the skies of our bodies.
The pressure that builds up and explodes with a crack, and a boom;
And then the rains fall down my face-
dropping off the bottom of my chin.
I wear them with pride, hiding no weakness, hiding no scars.
I don't shy away from another's gaze.
I look them in the eyes so they can see that even though I might be damaged, that I am also okay.
