Rain On My Pain

As the cold rain droplets fall on my skin

I feel a streak of energy reverberating in my body.

With goosebumps all over my naked flesh,

I am for the first time conscious of all the phenomenon happening around me.

The dark sky illuminating with the lightening

And resounding with the thunder.

The howling wind so strong, uprooting the trees

Reminding me of the dark times of the past....

I find it difficult to breathe,

So many feelings and emotions swelling up,

Choking me down,

I want to make it all go away but I can't.

I turn my face up towards the shower of rain,

Hoping that the cool blast of water,

Would wash away my pain,

But it's making me burn,

I hug myself tightly,

Bite my lips hard to hold back the screams,

Memories flash before me,

Of all the good times...

Now lost...

Do I not deserve a rainbow...

After all the turmoil dear God?

My relentless sobs increase

I feel drained out

My body all drenched

I try to get up ..

Slip and fall down..

The agony roots me down in the puddle. ..

This suffering I must endure,

To put on a bright face...

Be a sunshine with a heart burning with grief...

I thank you rain...

For allowing me to express my pain...

For hushing my cries under your pitter-patter music...

For keeping my secret.....
