The air grows heavy, an almost damp weight
pulling me down, making me desperate,
homesick,
for a little bit of rain from the thick clouds.
They put a lid on the usually barren skyscape,
adding a measurable distance of air
from me to the gray whisps
that always make me feel grounded,
too small for such a big space.
But I never notice the gap
until the clouds close over my head,
trapping me.
