I cannot adversely critique the style. It is well expressed.
I love the way you mix colours - Cerulaean blue; painting; murky, clouded; mud - within this piece.
As for content, the metaphor of rain skilfully counterpoints the happiness within. The notion in your profile of wasting our lives not realising our own potential, forgetting we only have the shot at life and we must make it count, or we will have led futile lives.
Part of that experience of life must be in my opinion to help, be be kind to, empathtic with, move and educate others with the little we have to give.
Maybe that is one of our roles as writers.
This piece has helped me on my journey in life as I hope it will have those of others who read it, in much the same way as I hope you may have gained emotionally by writing and sharing it.
I hope to read more of your writing soon.
With my encouragegmnt and warmest regards

It is part of the human nature and for me the weather and vibes others give off can affect my mood. I believe that adding in taste touch smell and color to pieces allow the reader to fully experience what the writer is trying to convey and can really make the emotion jump out, taking flight. I write poetry with very little punctuation. I don't want it to distract from what I am trying to get across.
Your work is always a pleasure for me to take in; It swirls around inside my mind and dances its way into my heart. "Sometimes..." adds a bit of open space and roominess to the piece.

Thanks. I think we all have minor moments of depression or sadness.

I like the use of rain to make your point. Droplets of rain can bring laughter or sadness. I like the flow of thoughts and how you ended the poem. Thank you for sharing excellent poem.

Thank you. I am glad you liked the emotions that were painted in the piece.
First off I'm on here to post my writing to have an outlet for my emotions. You will find a variety of poems. If you like take a moment and stroll through this poets mind.
Secondly be kind to each .. more..
