Rain & Birds

God you must know my pain,

Know how I can’t let this show,

Cause I feel the rain outside,

Are the tears I long to cry.

 

Yet you must know my joy too,

Know the happeniess that’s there,

Cause I hear the birds,

Speaking in their way.

 

I hear the rain,

And the tears I hold inside.

And I hear the birds,

And know that joy is there too.

 

Does this mean the storm will pass,

My tears will soon go away?

That clearer skies are coming,

And joy will come too?

 

I wish those raindrops,

Could be my tears.

And those birds,

My clear skies.

 

But not tonight,

Clear skies may not come.

Maybe tomorrow

My birds will sing louder.

. absolutely exquisite poetry ... i love your words ... your thoughts ... and your poetic voice ... the image of raindrops and the image of birds is perfect ... and ... i do believe that our darkest days are followed by our brightest days ... sometimes, when i had to be brave, i would doubt the universe ... but with the passage of time, i believe in the universe more and more ... the future will reveal more light than what any of us has right now ... i truly believe so ...
