Behind My Rain

Gray skies outlined every inch of a day gone bad
Clouds in recognition of a mourners plea
Then, in the middle of my quiet storm here inside
A little light was envisioned for me...

I never knew through the darkness I'd find my way
And, to what could be gained for this sadness I have
Then, I realized that behind my rain lies his sun
And, for our time apart life was just giving back...

We have to brake for a little guidance to follow
Must cease a short while for assurance to be heard
Cause, in the middle of a prayer for my angels arms
I became lighter just repeating my words...

I then thanked the heavens for the loneliness I felt
Gave praise to my most propounding ache
For, the distance between him and I this night
Was allowing him to view a much brighter place...

For, without me, night sheds a whole new color
I lift my hands to that moon he's resting in awesome light
Just sigh to the certainty the miles are providing him with
And, thank the stars for shining sweetly in a dreamers sight...

I thanked the rain for being all mine these days
If apart, he's granted life, I'll surely take the gray's
He's given a moment without my waters at his back
And, I simply can't ask for more then that...

and so it goes...

Your style is spectacular Suanni,  and your pen is an elegant one.

As usual; lovely poetry, I especially liked ...
'We have to brake for a little guidance to follow
Must cease a short while for assurance to be heard
Cause, in the middle of a prayer for my angels arms

... Has everything going for it, meaningful, well written and with amazing metaphoric imagery . Liked it a lot .

(big hugggsssssss) oh saunni, I know how you feel, sometimes when someone only takes us down, it is better to be alone and I am so happy you now have found the light for you are never alone! (sigh) This is wonderful, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Saunni, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton
