Long ago I once heard

Every cloud has a silver lining.
But I can't see the lining of this one.
Do dark coulds have a lining??
I bet they do but not silver
How can it be silver yet no light bounces on it??
How can it be yet all I see is pitch dark nimbus clouds
Clouds that blocked light from me down to the last photon
Clouds that bring torrential rain to my eyes
That cause thunderstorms that thrusts me to each and every dingy dungeon of life

If dark clouds have a lining
-Which is a big if-
Then it must be a rusty lining.
Not everything is a blessing in disguise.
Some are just purely pain
