Sleeping In The RainA Poem by Leah EverettSleeping In The Rain Walking the sea, isn't good enough for me. Neither is holding the sky in my eye. I could maybe sow stars back in the dark, But nothing can mend my broken heart. So I sleep in the rain, The numb the pain To wash away the emptiness How can I say, That I need you to stay When you won't even turn around? Time flies so fast, and nothing good ever lasts As I never have a smile to share I'm hoping and praying, stopping and delaying, I don't know why I still care. So I sleep in the rain, The numb the pain To wash away the emptiness How can I say, That I need you to stay When you won't even turn around? It's a waste of time, for this heart of mine To toil through the pain and the strife But how can I forget, the first day we met When it was the best day of my life? So I'll stand in the rain And plaster the pain In attempt to fulfill my emptiness And then I'll say That I can no long stay And then I will turn around. © 2011 Leah Everett |
