I wake up expecting clear blue skies,
A deep yet light blue that seems endless.
As I peek out of the blinds of my window,
I see what I feared most.
Once again, dark gray clouds seem to surround me,
And tear away my once lively hopes and dreams.
The blinds shut with a clatter,
And I walk out of my bedroom sluggishly.
I'm in my dad's car,
We're on our way to school.
I once again look up with hope,
Hope of at least some blue sky.
But as my eyes look upward,
All i see is endless greyness.
It laughs in my face,
Taunting me for believing in blue sky.
Lunch time comes,
And as I'm at my locker,
I think about my hope for blue sky,
And decide to give it another chance.
I look up for a third time today,
And what else do I see,
But a dark gray blanket,
And it takes away my confidence.
All day, I have been disappointed.
The one thing I hoped for still hasn't happened.
My hopes and my confidence are crushed.
Now, school is over,
And I decide to look up one last time.
My head shyly faces up,
And at last there is a change,
The blue sky opens up right in front of my dreary face.
