When The Clouds Burst Just For You

By Ishaan Dikshit

It's those few moments,

When you gaze from afar,

How life passes you by,

With no one to question,

How you are.

When dreams and reality

seem to traverse,

This line, unknown.

Like a droning buzzard,

A relentless flow.

When nothing makes sense

And senses make nothing at all,

When your mind is a mess,

And your heart, alas

Tragedy befall.

Gleam and perfect a day will be

Heartless and anchored,

your life.

But all that remains now,

Is your squandered strife.

The clouds darken just for you,

Rain in torrents awash,

All around you,

Life keeps going

As if it were untouched and posh.

So now it rains,

and it rains just for you.

Forgotten an umbrella or shade,

Clueless you are,

What to do.

Let down the frivolous care,

And its shelter to starve as true

Embrace the moment

In all its glory

For the clouds have burst just for you.
