You know those days when the sky is completely grey and we're afraid it's going to pour rain at any minute? You know how we make it through the storm, but still, we have to acknowledge that the clouds will eventually be back? You just never know when, and you'll never know how hard It'll down poor. It speaks to me on how I, myself express my sadness. These thoughts accumulate over time, they're there. I can sense them, sometimes I can forget them and they'll drift away and the sun will shine, the birds will sing, the sun rays will dance across my skin and all is at peace. Most of the time, that's just not how it works for me.   When I pour out I'm not just displeasing myself, I soak the people around me without warning. I don't want to be like that. I need to learn to love the rain.
