Let It Rain

Sometimes it takes a storm to feel what I've missed
And, I wait anxiously beneath this sky
Though it hurts to go through moments where we once stood
I need the storms to relive what's behind these eyes...

I just stare as the gray clouds roll fast over head
I let thoughts of you ride with the extreme warm winds
We know it can take a heartache to bring sunshine at last
So, let it rain on me and allow me to remember again...

Let it rain; let it pour on this heart of mine
At least I'll see you just like before
I'll take the rain as hard as God wants it to fall
And, I'll cherish hearing your voice in my mind once more...

We must take the good with the bad when love stands on our side
And, we must vow to keep memories at heart
It's hard to remember what's been promised then taken away
But, this rains all I have to hold while we are apart...

So, let it rain, I'll just cry as I smile here, too
And, I'll pray a little harder under the waters that fall
I wish I was enough in this world to lie with you again
But, I'm not the path you chose to walk at all...

If the rain must hurt so I can see your face
Then I will live beneath it as long as I can
If I can wipe the tears yet still sing for you
Then the rain, My Friend, is my only chance...

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

This poem speaks to my heart.  The best of loves are not easily forgotten.  Be well.  And write more why don't you?

Speak when you are angry--and you'll make the best speech you'll ever regret...Laurence J. Peter

Saunni~
You write of such sorrow, that I just want to give you a *hug*.
I pray the sun shines for you and you find a rainbow where the rain has been.
