I wish I could fly
High, up above the skyscrapers
and the stars, twinkling around the incandescent moon
I wish I could try
To be better at something
than winning ice cream from McDonalds Monopoly
I just want to be
More pure than the whitest snow
untouched by self conflict, war, and addiction
I want to show me
that I'm worth much more
than what I'm not letting myself have
Somewhere out there is my emotional meter
Controlled by something other than the sun in the sky
Someone out there will find it and take it for granted
shake it up and down, throw it to the ground
and I'll be left here, underneath a rain cloud
that will never produce
a rainbow.

I have no idea where this came from, but I had a really bad day. And I've noticed that the weather completely controls my mood. However, if I'm working, regardless of the sun, it feels like a rainy day.
What did you get from this?
