Grey Clouds 1985

The grey clouds that block my blue skies,

remind me of you.

The walls you surround me with,

you built brick by brick.

Until I slowly became trapped inside...

Inside a love, I thought was sincere.

But it was a game to you,

a very selfish game, that plays with the heart...mine.

Unfortunately, breaking down those walls, 

has taken much longer than it did to put up.

And my heart still bears the scars 

of your selfish game.

And the memories, like grey clouds,

still block my blue skies.

While I feel the pain of watching you turn and walk away,

leaving me alone, in the midst of laughter...

that wasn't mine.
