Inward Clouds of GrayBy 
Bruce Clifford
 Facing the truthLooking at you
 I'm not fazed by these inward clouds of gray
 When will things go our way
 
Forced between timeThe memory won't decline
 If the stars were all aligned
 If you were mine
 
Silence fades into the noiseThe quiet stares out to the void
 Mixed messages meant to destroy
 Every good girl and boy
 
Facing the truthLooking at you
 I'm not fazed by these inward clouds in your head
 Why won't you listen to anything I've said
