Hiking in the summer rain
I hear voices once again,
feelings crowd my soul when I leave town.

Dare I forget so easily
what Cupid's arrows did for me
though I'm over them they still linger now.

Walkin in the heat and wet
I can't forget with no regrets
Voices in the rain
Between the drops I hear their pain
in promises never vowed.

What's done is done but still I feel
deeper wounds that never heal
and there's no easy cure for them but time.

So once again I'm on my way
after all I never stay
runnin from a love I'm holdin deep inside

Walkin in the heat and wet
I can't forget with no regrets
There's voices in the rain
Between the drops I hear their pain
in promises never vowed.

Outro
Oh walkin in the heat and wet
with voices in the rain
I hear them callin my name
Voices in the rain

Ain't doin nothin at all
Just answerin the call
Kinda driftin away from it all~~~~~

man, Eric, I can hear the tune in this, though it might not match the notes you chose, it definitely sang itself into my rain brain

Eric...me thinks its time to round up the girlies and hit the road.

Love the cadenced blues of your rhymes my friend...play it again E-babes.

*shivers* I can relate to a few parts of this poem, but those are tales for another day.

Instead I'll thank you for posting such a work of art here for me to read (and the others that read it too of course :p)
