Rainy Days

Inspired by a few people. 1 was a girl I was seeing who fell in love with me but I cowardly walked away from her without saying goodbye . Another was an LDR that did not end graciously but silent.

Rainy days and memories make the paints run together like an orchard .

As the brush strokes run together they remind me of the paintings I

create for her .

I realize all of the colors as the sun sets on all the days we shared .

It's time I paint her portrait so this world will see , I never will

forget her .

And that never in my life , will I see her face again .

Time can never take it back to the place it should have been .

So many times , I threw her love away .

And now I wish that I had saved some for .... a rainy day .

As the brushstrokes run together I remember all of the times she shared

my bed .

I realize now she needed tender things that I should have said .

The memories and tears have streaked the brush strokes in her lovely

eyes .

As I read the final letter where she had to say goodbye ....

And that never in my life , would I see her face again .

Time can never take us back to the place we should have been .

So many times , I threw her love away .

And now I wish that I had saved some for .... a rainy day .

The portraits on my wall and I have gathered dust .

For holding on to still life dreams of such unfaithful times .

I might shead a tear if I knew why she's stayed inside my head .

But it's much too late and , I'm much too tired so , I'll just go to

bed ....

And dream about our life where I touch her face again .

But , the waken world just does'nt hold the place it should have

been

But , as I dream she never walks away .

And that memory somehow keeps me warm .... on rainy days ........

TY for your very kind words! I must ask though "what stuck out to you?, Which part did you like best? Would this be the kind of song that you would listen to? "

Well, the starting lines are amazing! Thats what caught my attention. They paint beautiful picture of the atmosphere.
plus the last line is the one which is emotional
really well written
