The rain fell not from the sky or from dark anvil clouds It fell from within myself Flash of lightning Night becomes bright for a split second trees can be seen swaying in the dark Wind gust in every hollow opening found within my heart the rain came and washed everything with a beat of a steady hand drumming to beats as thunder crashed the voice from the sky dark piano trembling keys in low pitched notes dark harmonies I loved you for your beauty but not for your soulless dreams the rain came suddenly and flooded the roads lost in a river of cold water forever remote
