Jan 2015
It's pouring rain, and I can see the darkened clouds accrue
Each drop that falls upon my window seems to come right through
And so my eyes accede the skies, each tear a piece of you
They lie upon my floor in shallow pools, and sorrows hue
It's cold outside and windy so I stay in from the rains
But cannot take my eyes away from what I hope remains
Of love that died, as dark clouds came and left the sky so stained
Upon my whole existence, leaving nothing...
but the pain
The soaking weather seems to somehow keep me locked inside
But also locked inside my thoughts, where memories reside
I guess my mind and heart are now along, just for the ride
I dream about the days before the sky and I...
had cried
My window holds these drops of rain, hopeless to see through
Or is it just my eyes that cannot see, grieving for you
The storm has taken everything, the love that we once knew
And now the rain reminds me, I am here...
but not with you
Skies outside are cloudy, my mind clouded as well
No clearing of the sky, or inside this raining hell
I try to tell myself that it's alright, but I can't tell
The void I stand in leaves my heart a hollow,
weakened shell
And I have no delusions that my eyes will see the storm
Ever stop outside or in myself to calm, and warm
They say this is exception but for me, it is the norm
The rain, it holds no solace for the one who's suffered harm
It only seems to pour that much harder into me
And also pours back out of me, and on this page, you see
I'm sorry to put burdens on your mind, that you don't need
But words are all I have, to show you how that it can be
Like someone to confide in, a shelter from the cold
The wind, it blows my thoughts away, emotions growing old
Too long have I, fought the fight too hard the rain, too bold
With not a loving hand or heart that I can have, and hold
I guess I've said too much to you I'm sorry if I'm down
But minds that rain inside, they have a tendency to drown
Drown themselves in sorrow and regret, for what they've found
I sit and watch the rain in silence...
wind the only sound
Except the beating of my heart, with loneliness set free
And there... outside the window rains the bitterness I see
The one that's left behind is the one that cries, and seems to be
That rain is falling from the inside out,
coming from me
