I wandered lonely as a cloud

I open my window to see a grey cloud I fear.
I close the window but the cloud is still here.
I can’t escape the cloud which haunts me
With all its lighting and puzzles thee.
 
What is going on?

The riddle sounds abstract but it isn't.

The clue: The cloud could haunt you too but only if you choose to.

You needn’t have Grimbal's expertise in order to solve the riddle.

If it were you’d not be able to smell it.

I'd like to run my back pain into the ground.  
 
If you connect two words of the previous sentence you will probably find the answer.

OK I think I get it.  Is the window on a computer?  When you close the window, the picture is still on the background.
 
I don't know why you can't escape it in that case. Unless you mean that simply pressing 'escape' has no effect.
