Clouds with Ellipses

Fits and starts

Clouds and ellipses

I fill silences with the dark

And I, I can take it

I wanna know the uncensored thoughts

Or maybe not

I know you

And your rhythm

When you took an extra beat

That rang true

Were you being honest and thought better of it?

I watched the cloud hesitate, then nothing

Clouds with ellipses

They come and go and come and go and

Fade away

Clouds with ellipses

They come and go and come and go and

Fade away

For these moments

Nothing else matters

Life and doldrums and pain

We float free

Till the cloud bursts

Are you even real?

Is that what you started to tell me but couldn't?

Clouds with ellipses

They come and go and come and go and

Fade away

Clouds with ellipses

They come and go and come and go

Meet me here

Free and numinous

Soaring over the rain

We get to be our most beautiful versions

Until we come down

Someone else gets the real thing

And we get our dots and our clouds

Clouds with ellipses

They come and go and come and go and

Fade away

Clouds with ellipses

They come and go and come and go and

Fade away

Clouds with ellipses

They come and go and come and go
