The Man in the Clouds

A man and his box

Sitting alone in the clouds

Watching from above

All that he’s tried to protect.

A man who’s been through everything

War, anguish, misery, heartache, grief

His entire world taken from him,

One star at a time.

And finally, he’s decided

He’s done with it all.

A lonely man with his magic box,

Looking down on the world that’s abandoned him.

For all of his efforts,

For all he deserves,

It never was.

And never would be.
