precipitation

Each day I wake and wonder if I'll ever find the strength to spell out my soul to remind you that sometimes it's okay just to let go of all your control But like the clouds in the sky I'll rain down on you And cool down your eyes That burn with anger from the mess you made. Misery has made you his slave. Tonight a cold breeze will find you The past that you lived through is present again in The roots that pull you down under Deep in your slumber The nightmare returns And like the stars in the sky I'll pierce through shadow Open up your eyes And guide you away from the mess you made. No longer will you be misery's slave. When spring wakes from his hibernation All of creation will view you and smile With the clouds gone Your precipitation And stars blotted by the sun Your gaze turned away... But still I found you, Beautiful and mute. In the glow of the evening's light, I held you once more, but too tight. Blood dripped down my arm, And stained the grass surrounding you: Soaking the coarse earth that was your womb. You are a rose newly bloomed
