To you I am
Like a cloud
I float around you
Hoping you’d notice me
I stay high above you
Hoping you’d one day fly to me
You do admire me sometimes
But you never reach out to me

To you I am
Like a cloud
When you jump I am higher
And when you jump higher I am still above you
You dart around to seek help
But you give up
I slip out of your hands
Float, glide and pick you up
But you are walking away
And to you I am still, forever,
A cloud.
