A cloud surrounding the mind, only to create chaos, disorder.
What is reality?
A dark cloud; confusion in and of itself.
What is reality?
Is it all a dream? Am I even real? What is this cloud?
Where is reality?
Like a storm at sea, dark clouds over the water.
Where is reality?
Whispered words, the coldness of life. Why is it so? Shrouding the vision, eyes unopened. Numb to the world, to the caring of others. Numb to love and to life.
What is love?
Emotions repressed and kind words unsaid.
All for reality? No. It's not real.
What is life?

The author's comments:
Sometimes we lose sight of what is real and what is not. In this piece i tried to capture that idea through questions and the comparison with clouds.

Very well done, I often wonder if everything is only just a dream.
