SOMETIMES

sometimes you hide
in a crowd of strangers
like the sun disappears
in a clouded sky

sometimes I find you
when the mist fades away
as the crowd dissipates
when I close my eyes

but sometimes I’m lost
in a whirlpool of thoughts
and I follow your trail
through a restless mind

until I escape
my fortress of doubt to
traverse the clouds and
let my heart unwind.
