Rain


Rain, rain go away

Come again another day

But still you fall down the slope

Slickening my only rope

Making it hard to hold on

And easy to fall until I’m gone

“Stop the downpour,” I keep callin’

But still this rain keeps fallin’

Filling up every space

Pushing into my face

I’m drowning in my troubles

All I can see is rain and bubbles

It’s now or never, do or die

If only I could simply fly

But instead I’m stuck here

Being pummeled by fear

So I grab onto my last hope

I pull and tug and climb that rope

Then find some higher ground for me

To wait until I’m free

From this rain, rain that won’t go away

It’s here to fall yet another day.
