Why must I be tormented so
The tears I feel in my heart
The pain it feels
My sunny day once bright has turned cloudy
The time spills over me as I wait
I wait so long the pain growing with in me clawing to get out
Ripping at my skin fighting to break free
I collapse to the ground on my knees my body slumped over
Hands on the ground holding me up barely
My head hangs down as rain falls
Mud covering my hands as they sink in the soft ground
Rain flows down my face hiding the tears I have not cried before
My wings weighed down with water cling to the ground
As my arms give out from under me
Falling to the ground soaked in the rain that falls so ******* me
Foot steps are heard but far away
I stay there lying on the ground as a hand is placed on my shoulder
I lift my head up to see your face
Your tears hidden by the rain
You sit down next to me placing me head on your lap
Your tears stop as we are together again
No longer in a life of pain and sorrow
No longer apart from the other but together
