Clouded Mind Poem by RoseAnn V. Shawiak

Clouds filling my mind, floating over thoughts and hiding
them for now.

Life is too sad to be looked at right this minute, another
time in the future, perhaps, will be fine.

Certain circumstances have yanked out my heart and it lies
broken in a puddle of mud-red-blood.

Muddled by the lies and deceit of those I thought I knew,
wonder and awe have slipped away from me too.

Existence cannot be tolerated for the time being, so
clouds will continue to fill my mind, hiding all thoughts
and memories behind tightly closed doors.
