The rain taps on the window Asking Ever so politely to be let in The wind, a horse of a different colour Charges through itself Roaring as slams into the glass barrier It can't get through Whining, screaming even Begging to enter Pleading to send it's icy gusts over my bones Freezing them, making them brittle enough to shatter But let us forget not about the rain As polite as it is, slyness comes also At least with the wind You know what it wants But the rain Will drown you while your still breathing
