Like everyone else, these September downpours have me grumbling, but secretly, I couldn't be happier. Rain has come for me, my saviour from the skies, Cautioning, encouraging restraint. Thank you rain, For hiding everything from everyone. For masking tears, Blurring fears, And keeping me away. I am still so vulnerable, But I want to stay strong, and am trying so hard. This downpour, this baptism, Washes away weakness, and temptation, And may tip the balance the right way; Move me further from Summers' indulgence Into abstinence, and resolve. I am ever grateful to the Gods of Rain, Who saw what I needed, and supplied, They may save me from myself.

Grateful for Rain
Like everyone else, these September downpours have me grumbling, but secretly, I couldn't be happier. Rain has come for me, my saviour from the skies, Cautioning, encouraging restraint. Thank you rain, For hiding everything from everyone. For masking tears, Blurring fears, And keeping me away. I am still so vulnerable, But I want to stay strong, and am trying so hard. This downpour, this baptism, Washes away weakness, and temptation, And may tip the balance the right way; Move me further from Summers' indulgence Into abstinence, and resolve. I am ever grateful to the Gods of Rain, Who saw what I needed, and supplied, They may save me from myself.
