Her surroundings seem so quiet
The office stench made her sick
She watched the people shuffle down the hall
And listened to the big clock tick…

She looked out the dull window
And saw her dreams floating by
Each dream on a single cloud
Disappearing into the gray sky

On the first white cloud was a picture
Of a beautiful wedding day…
The church is filled with flowers
All her loved ones celebrate

The next cloud was house
A big white one indeed
She saw herself by the garden
Carefully planting her seeds

The next cloud was the best one yet
Floating by like a perfect sail
Her husband looked so happy!
They decided to name the baby “Abigail”…

...the next cloud was a dark one
A picture of the same church from before
The church was filled with flowers
But no one looked happy anymore…

Reality came flooding back
Like a whirlwind in her head
She thought back to a careless night
When only regret lay with her in bed

The expressionless nurse looked at her
She knew what was on her mind
The pinch it barely hurt her at all
What hurt more was deep inside

Later that week she got the call
And heard the emotionless voice on the line
She held her breath with all her might
Until the voice on the phone said “you’re fine”

"I mean that loving you is strange and adored by me throughout..oh no it's you again, blessing you with every kiss..."

Beautyful, the way you write, it's intriguing. Captured me until the end, I was free again. Loved it.
