This morning, it rains immitating last night's emotional forcast     how pathetic This morning, the ground is wet yet I can't shake this dry feeling I woke up to isn't rain supposed to nourish life? This morning my breakfast is a sugary Kelloggs cereal but my mouth still tastes bitter from yesterday's words This morning, I watch children's cartoons instead of the news Because I'm done with grown ups, with their tragedy and bad weather Reality destroys the good in the good morning show This morning, I don't want to go out Despite that, I sit on this almost empty bus that brings me out into the world This morning, I wish that my umbrella sheilded me from the negative thoughts that rain down on my head, and soak my scalp I don't like isolation but I can't risk exposure because when the photo is overexposed, you lose the darkness as well as the photograph. Which I don't think is a very fair trade... But this morning, I come to realize peace in the rain, a cleansing, calm, new beginning I learn to listen to the pitter patter, which echos my heart beat And though nothing feels fair, and I feel like I'm drowning I know the rain will never consume me So I'll dance in the showers, and when the waters flood up all around me I will swim   like I'm back in my favourite version of summer Rain, rain, don't go away somebody needed you

Morning downpour

A while ago a little all over the place I like rain
