One of Those Days

One of Those Days


It was one of those days
When clouds get too close
You can almost touch them
And keep them in a jar
And keep them
Until eternity runs out of time

It was one of those days
When my mind was clear
And ready to choose that cloud
Hanging around too closely
I can almost touch it
And also touch the cloud
Behind the cloud behind the cloud
I have chosen

On such a clear day
I can see that once again
I am losing myself in you
The way I have lost myself
In each and every one I loved
And lost

I can clearly see the wrong things
I have done to spoil everything
That I have carefully built
And maintained with control and poise
And love, and love, and love
Or what I have always thought was love

Because on a clear day such as this
All that I need is a hug that lasts forever
And a kiss that never ends
The sweet smell of your luscious hair
The gentle caress of your soft touch

Yet on a clear day such as this
When the clouds are too close
You can almost touch them
I will do again over and over
The same wrong things I had done
Because my heart knows only one way
And that is to love with love
Even if it kills other loves
On a clear day such as this
