Sometimes I feel like an upturned umbrella, Serving no purpose in the heavy rains . Filling up with water, Like emotions I can't let go of. I feel bad for myself, As I see the other umbrellas being embraced. Why do I lie on the ground, My insides drenched with pain? Do I have holes That I am thrown away? And then someone picked me up And I felt an immense joy. My insides were dried and my holes fixed And someone held me up again. That moment realization, Like lightning struck. I just needed someone to see the good in me I needed someone, to be me. And spreading colours another Umbrella popped into place. Saving my saviour, with my grace. Finally being what I was meant to be, As I looked up at the sky. And the thanked the bright lightning, For giving meaning to an umbrella's life.

Upturned umbrella
Sometimes I feel like an upturned umbrella, Serving no purpose in the heavy rains . Filling up with water, Like emotions I can't let go of. I feel bad for myself, As I see the other umbrellas being embraced. Why do I lie on the ground, My insides drenched with pain? Do I have holes That I am thrown away? And then someone picked me up And I felt an immense joy. My insides were dried and my holes fixed And someone held me up again. That moment realization, Like lightning struck. I just needed someone to see the good in me I needed someone, to be me. And spreading colours another Umbrella popped into place. Saving my saviour, with my grace. Finally being what I was meant to be, As I looked up at the sky. And the thanked the bright lightning, For giving meaning to an umbrella's life.
