Ever Notice How Some Days Seem To Be Made For Rain



Ever notice how some days seem to be made for rain?

I mean, why should I fall in love…again?
It's such a long, long fall and I don't have wings.
I don't know how to fly, can't glide, flutter or float.
I fall like a stone…in love that is; Hard.
I fall totally, completely, unfathomly deeply, and
I can fly then!
I soar with the eagles, touch the top of the sky,
love till every fiber glows with radiant fire.
I love from the soul,
from the touch of God that is my life.

But why should I fall in love…again?

Ever notice how some days seem to be made for rain?
Ever notice how they cloud up, get dark and ominous?
Ever notice how you can hurt so bad
that dying wouldn't be enough;
how you cry until the tears have all run out,
and then you cry some more?
Ever notice how everywhere you look
you see the love you lost?
Ever hurt so bad that pain would be a blessing?

Ever notice how some days seem to be made for rain?
Ever notice how some days...
seem to be made for rain?

'I fall totally, completely, unfathomly deeply, and

I like the idea of realizing you have to fall ...
before you can fly !

Neat thoughts.

Thanks for the vibes my friends.  Kinda of a stretch I guess but was asked "Why" by someone I know (seems I know a lot of people going through the throes...)and this popped into the keyboard.
