Somewhere in the clouds, 

she frowns and looks down

 

The humans want ot fight

while others yearn to unite

 

Shots erupt in the air, and the moment is dire

Persistence and bitter revenge adds wind to the fire

 

The drought of happiness adds sour turmoil to the land

The thumps that hit the ground sound like the drum beats of a band

 

The last words of a dying man is "So close yet so far"

But across the globe, Cupid's arrow flys to one's lovestruck heart

 

She sees the world as a boiling pot of emotions

That will one day spill over like a poisonous potion

 

How to keep everything balanced and in the pot?

Many try to apprehend but they know not

 

She used to be apart of this boiling pot called Earth

She experienced love, anger, bliss and merth

 

But now she just sits and watches above form her bubble

She has no anger, happiness, sadness nor trouble

 

So, somewhere in the clouds

She frowns and looks down


The author's comments:

This poem is about someone who was tired of being apart of Earth, and decided to live in a 'bubble,' somewhere in the clouds and just be in her own zone, forgetting all the troubles - kind of how some people feel. But now, without trouble she doesn't know happiness either. She is just blank.
