Rain Rain Don't Go Away

Appreciating the fleeting rain that makes me forget my problems for a moment.

Bright flashes of lightning

Followed by the thunder’s loud roaring.

Accompanied by strong winds, empowering

This heavy rain, fierce and unfaltering

 

I’d love to stand in this downpour’s peak

And feel the droplets glide on my cheeks

While slowly losing the warmth on my face

As if struck by death’s dark, cold embrace

 

Somehow, I find comfort in the cold

For I’ll start to feel numb in every part of my body

Allowing me to forget the pain that I unwillingly hold

And find peace in the rain’s tranquility

 

How ironic it truly is

To find temporary happiness in this symbol of sorrow

And despite all the noise, I am at ease

For this rain fills my heart that is hollow
