Here I am awake, dozing Listening to the storm drifting away... I just want to be a part of the rain. washing away  with other raindrops  into the earth, creating  life.  To be beautiful and essential.  I crave it... the muffled fingertips of rainwater  drum out the sound of the sky on all things below And I  lay here in wonder wishing... I could be carried away with those noisy clouds on a silent wind   To some other landscape to fall far and fast with a strength and purpose never alone and always together, A raindrop I would become, and gladly race to the soil to soak into the flesh of the earth  And be happy Be happy. For once, my heart would be free of ache  as I would be carried  far  far away from here... here. In this bed  of my heavy heart with these sorrows as my blanket. weighing me down. Separating me forever from the passing rain And my tears... my tears are the closest thing to rain. but they come alone. and only from pain.

to be part of the rain...
Here I am awake, dozing Listening to the storm drifting away... I just want to be a part of the rain. washing away  with other raindrops  into the earth, creating  life.  To be beautiful and essential.  I crave it... the muffled fingertips of rainwater  drum out the sound of the sky on all things below And I  lay here in wonder wishing... I could be carried away with those noisy clouds on a silent wind   To some other landscape to fall far and fast with a strength and purpose never alone and always together, A raindrop I would become, and gladly race to the soil to soak into the flesh of the earth  And be happy Be happy. For once, my heart would be free of ache  as I would be carried  far  far away from here... here. In this bed  of my heavy heart with these sorrows as my blanket. weighing me down. Separating me forever from the passing rain And my tears... my tears are the closest thing to rain. but they come alone. and only from pain.
