Midnight Sky Cry Rain

I was wearing dark blues and greys.

Midnight Sky Cry Rain

I sat next to the window

Plugged into the twenty-first century

The Earth I knew

Had become dry

I was wearing dark blues and grays

Just praying for release

From this summer heat

I sat frozen in thought

Only moving to look in the mirror

Across the room

Pouring rain

Darkened sky

Purple lightning

Dark blue night

Black clouds

The trees, midnight forest green

The night had gone beautiful

Rain pouring from sweet heavens

Midnight sky cry rain

While the mirror across the room

Showed the happenings from the window

I was stuck,

Plugged into the time of this world

I lost the memory

The transcendentalist in me

The beauty of nights darkest skies

The sound of pouring rain

I am truly home,

When and where it rains

I love the rain, too. It moistens, rejuvenates, heals, and quenches thirsty crops, thirsty grass, thirsty minds tired from too many days of interaction. The rain almost acts as a curtain that comes down allowing a temporary intercession to the play of your life. No one calls or comes over in the rain...You can just breath and relax. No work, no running, no tv, no cooking...no one expects anything in the rain...It's a beautiful, but temporary respite from the expectations of the day. Very nice, write, Savannah...:)

a nice peaceful moment here...almost as if the sky is crying for her so that her mind can go elsewhere besides into memory of heartbreak.

i like the reflection of what is outside the window, in the mirror...
the speaker staring at the reflection, rather than staring out the window..
it's like second hand thoughts....just reflections of the real thing.

Thank you for your great remarks and review Jacob! Beautiful thought on the reflection of the window and mirror!! :)
