She screams into the rain
The sound bounces off the countless raindrops
The sound goes so fast it becomes color
The color of infinity stretching across the sky.
Soaked to the bone
Clothes sticking to her body
Her tears mingle with rain
A walking bomb ready to burst.
She was breathless
Her lungs ached
Rain danced in headlights
She was hypnotized
Bare feet firmly on the gravel
She felt every crack rock and pebble
It all seemed so small
In the face of rain
It will be all washed away
In the sweeping storms
She smiled at the thought of being unburdened
To be free of your problems
She found it in the young spring rain
Hope.
Banish the ghosts that haunt your dreams
Lift the fear of the future and see the beauty of today
The hope of being able to live
Freely and utterly
