Just like the clouds

Ran Zhi Sen

Similar to you, the cloud is such a captivating sight.
I despise knowing that such a happy sight, is often a gloomy, gray cloud pouring with rain. And I resent the fact I am unable to help keep you cheerful.

My life without you is like a sky without clouds,
Just empty and blue

And my life without you is like the land without clouds,
Lifeless and gray.

You bring life, and joy to me just as the clouds do.
