Just fine

People passing by, as I sit on the steps by the water,

Staring at the bellowing clouds in the sky.

I hate to think all we had was a lie;

But it’s the only thought on my mind.

Sensitive girl, I say to myself;

Tucking my knees and holding them close,

Why do I only think of the worst case scenarios.

The lake and I are similar in this way,

Wearing our heart on our sleeves, a continuous emotional display.

Clouds begin to form above my eyes,

As the blue sky fades to grey.

I sit a bit longer, and wait for yet another storm to pass by.

My dear friend, the Great Lake,

Raises her waters high to cover up the sound of my somber cries.

I suppose it’s just you and I. I finally say, wiping a tear from my eye.

She looks at me and say’s; My dear, that’s just fine.
