The crying cloud
Let me see all the beauty there is in this world. Get this cloud away from my eyes. It's rain has fogged my vision. I cannot see beyond these cloud tears. I cannot hear past these clouds cries of desperation. The cloud envies me but I do not know why. Just get it away from me for I cannot listen to it any longer. I can hear, I can feel it's sorrow. It makes my heart ache for it's misfortune. The Misfortune that it refuses to let me see. The misfortunate it tucks away from any watchful eye that may take a glance. I can tell it wishes for a rainbow.
The rainbows every other crying cloud has. I can tell it wishes to be normal. So it's cries of envy and desperation are drenched with jealousy. He struggles to get through all the eyes that stare at him with judgement. For he is unique and never unwatched. He wishes to be normal and not unique; because if you're unique you stand out. Now I have finally realized I was always staring at something beautiful. I was staring at what true struggle was. And now I know it was not envy his eyes were serving up but instead it was petty. For now I know I was just like him.
