sometimes I feel so blue

the endless nature of my sadness
brings me to despair

sometimes I cry in the rain

but the rain only hides my sadness
as my tears fall within their droplets

and noone seems to know
or even care for that matter

why should they,
they don't feel this blue day as I

the dark deepening despair
that takes over like the fog in the night

creeping in with an uneasy eeriness
that soon consumes me whole

so I stand out in the rain,
tears flooding down my face

and the rain hides it all too well

sometimes I cry in the rain.........

My dear LW thanks for your caring, everything is very much OK with me, sometimes something just triggers a very sad and lonesome piece and it just longs to be written which I've done. Thanks hon for your concern but at the moment I'm fine

Crying in the rain.......indeed, it would hide the tears. I wish I could do it someday....

It seems that rain is causing so much sadness lately.....

Thank you

You've captured this sorrowful scene beautifully Tracie ... the visual you've left me with, will stay with me a very long time. Very nicely done indeed.  

Best wishes,
