The Rain
Suddenly it has come to me. The rain kissing my face
The water to erase the scum that came
from my past--The hurricane that was here before
is coming once more. I should run from the pain.
But the soothing sights and sounds, the breeze blowing 'round, tell me I will gain
From the sweet whisper of the rain
I hear the Whoosh Coming closer, with more weight than before
The breeze that caressed me turned--Turned to a wind of the insane
I am frightened--scared of the droplets hitting me with such intensity
The waters rise above me, drowning me so I am never the same
The cataclysm come again. I cry out in vain
For the pattern to cease, the repeating rain
The rain has left me. Scorned. Torn.
I rest in the tragedy left with another stain
Who knows when the next storm will come
I cry-complain-curse the sky, but I only have myself to blame
I sit.alone.Watching the water drain
And the sky still gray, holds me forever prisoner. In this land of rain
