Long-craved rain came at last-
It's cool moist touch eased all misery;
Life returned to this City of Dead,
Relief echoed through it’s streets.
Relief echoed through it’s streets.
What the rain brought me
couldn’t be more contrasting!
As I stood by my window,
The rain soothing my face;
The storm caressing my hair;
Never suspecting it was coming…
couldn’t be more contrasting!
As I stood by my window,
The rain soothing my face;
The storm caressing my hair;
Never suspecting it was coming…
Thunder struck.
It’s roar broke the illusion of pleasure,
Crushed the barrier in which I kept
Captive, my happiest days.
Memories came flooding in
Like water from a broken bank…
Resistance never stood a chance.
Crushed the barrier in which I kept
Captive, my happiest days.
Memories came flooding in
Like water from a broken bank…
Resistance never stood a chance.
My arms lifted spontaneously, to embrace the rain-
Just as it had done once before.
The rain felt so cold, so heartless now,
As I stood, half in anticipation
Of what had followed then…
Halfway between past and reality
I remained, transfixed,
My brain throbbing the words
“Enjoying the rain?”
Just as it had done once before.
The rain felt so cold, so heartless now,
As I stood, half in anticipation
Of what had followed then…
Halfway between past and reality
I remained, transfixed,
My brain throbbing the words
“Enjoying the rain?”
Wishes sighed within me,
An insatiable fire burnt my insides-
The sheer weight of emotions too overwhelming,
Too unbearable to withstand.
It was nothing I’d ever felt before…
More than pain, it was agony-
More than memory, it was a souvenir-
Of something I didn’t deserve to remember.
An insatiable fire burnt my insides-
The sheer weight of emotions too overwhelming,
Too unbearable to withstand.
It was nothing I’d ever felt before…
More than pain, it was agony-
More than memory, it was a souvenir-
Of something I didn’t deserve to remember.
I was broken down, given up.
Instincts took control:
Instincts took control:
My cell trembling in my palm,
I typed down the words
“Enjoying the rain?”
I have my finger on "Send" now,
But I doubt my strength to press it…
What happens next?
But I doubt my strength to press it…
What happens next?
Another clap of thunder drowns my scream!
