The clouds are darkening
The sun never shining
As the rays of warmth dwindle
She finds comfort in her cold world
So seemingly grey
She looks up at the stars at night
Hoping one day she’ll become one
Oh darkening clouds
Your rain tramples on her skin
Like the footsteps of her parents when she was 10
Your thunder as loud as the belt that leaves her black and blue
Oh darkening clouds
Your grey skies fill her with gloom
As she recalls being trapped in a dark room
And only the sliver of light that sneaks underneath the door kept her sane
Oh darkening clouds
Your days are oh so dark
When will your sun ever shine on her?
