Silver lining
Surprisingly the clouds will fold up And the sun turn stern cold, The breeze would cease, — everything will begin to burn up Like blue fever Like a desert And the heart will begin its perilous journey Through the blue sea, through the atomic desert Like Moses with his packs of unbelieving sheeps Cursed to wander Surprisingly the clouds unfold again And there is warmth And the eyes re-adjusts for a better view The glimmering smiles blend into each other And the glamour sinks deep into the skin Deeper into the bones Deepest into the soul And the heart heals up, like a grafted tree Surprisingly there appears in the clouds a silver lining A hue wearing the face of hope

This poem makes me understand that no condition is permanent. As much as we want to believe, change is definitely inevitable. The hands of the clock would turn and things would become better again. It is only for a little while.
