I really like how this one came out, I think you will too.

Today, I looked up at my black sky
The site was great, not a cloud to defy
Looking up, I felt so small
Like I didn't really belong at all

Somewhere out there, I heard a storm
But I couldn't see it, like it hadn't been born
Rain started to fall, all around my head
But it felt so light, so thin like a thread

I closed my eyes so I couldn't see
Perhaps the storm was inside of me
At once, they tore open, but the sky had changed
It was no longer black, no longer deranged

The sky was now blue with the brightness of sun
The darkness once there, seemed to be on the run
I still felt so small with the darkness at end
But a part of me felt like I found a friend

Not a friend you could see or feel
I'm not sure I should even say, "Real."
But a friend is a friend, and they were there
To say anything else just wouldn't be fair.

I closed my eyes again maybe to see something more
But now only darkness thrived in the core.
I know I was blind, but I now could see
As my eyes opened, and I become free.
 
What a beautiful poem of transformation :) I'm sure everyone will have thier own interpretation of it. To me it spoke of transformation and the struggle that we continue to find ourselves in as human beings. Great poem. I loved it! (especially the "friend " part :)
