Yesterday I went out walking;
I went out walking in the rain,
Apologised to my brolly
"I won't be needing you today"
I felt each and every rain drop
Fall, slowly trickling down my face
And it seemed each drop that landed
Was there to wash away my pain.
The hair on my head was curling
And all my clothes were wet right through
But my legs just kept on walking
Until my mind felt fresh and new...
I know the rain hasn't changed things,
That my life is still much the same
But my worries had a cleansing;
The purest smile broke through that day
I was reminded that life is
Full of beauty with skies so blue,
And although at times we're tested
Life's packed full of good things too!

I'm a true believer writing = healing; for me anyway and until a month or so ago it'd been a good year or more since I'd been able to write anything. I feel as if I'm finally building blocks and beginning to face my feelings head on... That can only be a good thing.
