a house with clouds

There was no house before

No color in the clouds

with time that changed

And a picture was painted.

With it grew the seeds of doubt

Years went by. And still I am not quite sure

It took years of my asking, to know where this would go.

Tell me where it went to hell

And what happened in those days.

For years time and time again

No answer was ever gained.

And now I know the answers

And still nothing has changed.

Nothing that mattered was said

But everything that counted was saved.

Now I know about the mysteries

That kept me up at night.

Now I know about the pain. That

I doubted and recited.

Now I know for sure, what I

always assumed from the start.

I was not late to the ruin.

There was never a home to save.

The house was never colored,

And the clouds were never made.
