Epiphany.


As I walked through rain today, I realized,
that every little drop had something to say,
it wanted to rest on my brow, then on my cheek,
it wanted to dance in front of my eyes throughout the day.

Every step into a puddle, sent a spiral of rings,
for every little splash, my heart just wanted to sing,
the clouds seemed to smile, the droplets celebrate,
today I had no worries about the mysteries of my fate.

When the leaves bent under the weight of dew,
the air smelled fresher, every breath so new,
I wanted to close my eyes and feel the breeze,
I wanted to sprout wings and fly with ease.

As the droplets soaked me through and through,
I felt like a swan in the waters deep blue,
when my spread palms were greeted by rains,
I knew I could let go of all the strains.

I wanted to jump into puddles, fling mud around,
I wanted to touch the sky, lift my feet up the ground,
I wanted to pinch the clouds, dance in the rain,
I wanted to forget the tears, bid farewell to pain.
I wanted to arrange the rain drops on my lashes,
I wanted to kill the flame, scatter the ashes.

I looked up the sky and smiled at the clouds,
today things were clear, there wasn't a single doubt.
I didn't want the sun to come out, I liked the gloom,
it felt like the world had finally given me some room.

I stretched my arms and lifted my face,
each little drop gifting me with so much solace.
I squinted my eyes as the drops fell one by one,
the lands of my heart were no longer barren.

It Rained Pain Today.


It rained pain on me today,
It soaked me wet,
It made me want to drown,
It filled me with regret.

It rained flames on me today,
It burnt me dry,
It made me want to burn,
It just made me want to die.

It rained blood on me today,
It colored me a total crimson,
It made me want to run away,
It weighed upon me more than a ton.

When the rains all ceased,
I stopped to gather my pieces,
One here, another there,
Nothing looked at ease.

There was a torrent of sorrow,
then a lightening of grief,
Right now I'd do anything,
to cut my life really brief.

Every step of mine,
was too stalled,
I felt so worthless,
so useless, so small.

The sun burnt my eyes,
The rains soaked my soul,
I was all alone,
There was nobody to call.

In the midst of the storm,
I stood like a burnt match,
looking at the ruthless sky,
for a single star to catch.

It was too dark,
I couldn't see a thing,
There were thorns,
and flowers that'd sting.

Rocks tore my flesh,
Pebbles pelted my eyes,
Thorns poked my soul,
I was now deaf to my own cries.

So it rained pain today,
and it purged me inside-out,
and now I'm left to melt,
in the fire of doubt.
