Outside From Within

Writing from my wishful heart...


Outside From Within

I awoke by my window
And caught a glimpse of the outside...

The sky was a dull blue
While billows of heavenly smoke
Drifted by...

They drifted East so I 
Made a wish...

That the day star 
From me, be not hid!

But then, the wind sighed
And them billows
Drifted westward and I cried...

'Stop and clear away
I want to be under blue skies not grey!'

As I whispered these words
The wind sighed again
Gently this time...
It kissed my cheek
Clearing my sleep laden lids
It told me a promise...

Sunny days haven't left yet
And hope is what I need, to be 
Outside from within...!
