I’m going to stomp my feet into every puddle Until I can’t distinguish the tears running down my cheeks From the rain tumbling to the ground The sky has a way of curing, Like running your hand under cold water After you’ve accidentally touched the stove, Numbing the pain but leaving you with your wound to remember that everyone makes mistakes My arms extended from my sides My heart faces the sun And my eyes closed, Accepting nature’s natural way Of washing away all of my worries The clouds will finally part and the rain will slow… I will be left in the middle of the street, Shivering, but feeling pure bliss how else are you supposed to learn to not get near the things that will leave you with tender skin?
