When I am alone

When I am alone, my mind wanders. I want to express my thoughts, my emotions - but there is no one to express them to. I heard a beautiful poetry (spoken words) rendered by Sarah Kay. Hearing her made me want to be that expressive and that communicative. Here is my attempt.

I look out the window of our nth house to see the beautiful mountains peeping through the clouds. When the mountains are completely hidden by the clouds, I keep waiting and watching for the mountains to come out and be visible. When I finally see them, there is a joy, a satisfaction in my heart. But why is that not enough? Why does my heart, my feeling again want the mountain to hide behind the clouds so that I can experience the same happiness, satisfaction of seeing it emerge from the clouds. Is it because it gives a 'high' of some sort? I realize that I have a lot of questions.
