I walked into a cloud today;
An illuminated
cloud.
Not one that obscures the vision and envelops the light
but one that makes
the world clearer.
Perhaps because it made the world simpler.
I could not see before me or behind me.
All that was visible were my immediate surroundings,
only where i was
stepping next.
It clouded all thought of what was to come
and what i had left
behind
All speculations and worries of these things disappeared
as their silhouettes
were engulfed by a blinding whiteness.
I wasn't alone in finding a peaceful solace in this cloud
there were others
who came and went; drawn by the same enticing abyss.
They floated in and out of my vision as ghosts,
in the light yet
leaving no trace of shadow.
Their faces and features were concealed
yet I felt their
presence.
We all came because we were searching for something
whether that was an
answer, a refuge, or merely creative inspiration was unclear.
Either way we were connected; breathing in rhythm with the
breaking waves
isolated in our
thoughts from the outside world.
Suddenly, a ray of sunlight broke through the mist tearing
away our created sanctuary;
But the thoughts,
emotions, and feelings it provided could never be torn away.
I walked into a cloud today...
