Through Clouded Skies

With focused gaze, I pierce the veil of gray,
Narrow eyes searching for a brighter day.
To soar unbound, a yearning in my soul,
Like a free bird, to reach a distant goal.

The sky weeps today, a storm in full cry,
Rain descends in sheets, mirroring my sigh.
Uncertainty reigns, a shadow in the air,
But deep within, a strength I choose to share.

For even when skies are heavy, dreams won't fade,
The fire within me, by the storm unfazed.
This waiting is preparation, wings held tight,
For when the clouds part, I'll take to the light.

Transformed by the rain, a resilience I find,
Hope takes flight again, soaring in my mind.
The sky will clear, and I'll be ready then,
A free bird at last, amongst the clouds again.

Trust the wait
