The Day It Rained Some people saw the sun that day But for us true darkness fell hard our way We know, God, you took what was righteously yours So, the day it rained was the day it poured... It feels so sad to close our eyes when tomorrow you won't be near And it feels so empty to say to God how we wish you could be here It's through strength somehow that has seen us through In spite of our rain we know God's smiling at you... We really can't tell you what these three years have been And words can't explain the storms we've lived in So, sometimes when we need to feel you around We take our good memories to the brightest star found... Each night you'll find us staring beneath that sky Because those who love you will always cry If you can hear our wish you'll see we wish life was the same But for now we pray for the end of this lifetime rain.... Through these years we feel how we are making it is wrong Because each day we hear the sound of you gone But there is only one thing that you didn't do The day you left you forgot to take us with you... We never knew lonely could be this hard When your eyes and your face are just too far Could you ask God for us to take away this pain? Because it's been pouring since the day it rained... Saun Sauni :) Have you ever known the color grey when the nighttime finds you weak I have, I've walked that road each time; that's where my angel sleeps |

Saun..... I can't even begin to tell you how this one touches me. I have a son who has been missing for 13 years now, and this poem expresses how it feels. Thank you, Saun, my heart goes out to you, too..... Love received is equal to love given! |
