Drifting
╚ ════ ≪ °❈° ≫ ════╝
This cloud often drifts by,
lingering for quite a while.
Its shade is like no other;
a coolness that makes you stay under.
Its form reminds me of you,
and the fun we shared too.
Longing for it to remain,
a feeling that would never wane.
But as time flows by,
the cloud floats across the sky,
having the shade now gone,
leaving me blinded by the sun.
A reminder of my mistakes,
a source of my heartaches.
The cause for my unfulfilled yearning,
the reason for our abrupt drifting.
Under these scorching rays,
I try to find you to convey my dismays,
in hopes for redemption,
to complete our restoration.
As the heat continues to blaze,
a thought obscures my view like haze,
that maybe I don't deserve to be saved
from a narrative that can't be erased.
That maybe you've buried it under,
averse to reread that chapter.
That maybe you've found your place,
as well as your happiness and solace.
My mind never silent,
the rays more persistent.
Slowly succumbing to these notions,
surrendering to the burning sensation.
Beneath the sky set ablaze,
I look above with a ruminative gaze.
You may drift into my mind often times,
but these regrets can never drift into time.
