The real cloud nine is a Cumulonimbus – those massive towering clouds that you see just before an enormous storm. Inside they a whirling mass of wind & rain. During WWII an pilot ejected over one and a fall that should have taken 10 minutes ended up taking 40 as he was tossed about inside the cloud. Amazingly he survived, but the experience left him with bleeding ears & several broken bones. Does this more fully describe what your heart has just gone through? I hope not.
@DJ: Actually, those massive towering clouds that you see just *before* a storm are called towering cumulus. They become cumulonimbus *while* it is raining.
Black, liquid sorrow of the heart?

@Anonymous That’s odd, I did write some but it doesn’t seem to have come out… I’ll push some internet buttons and see if I can fix it

Personally, I think cloud 9 would be a cirrus.
Ouch, that alt-text hurt
