they often say the rain
\ncleanses
\nthe soul.<\/p>\n
only today
\ndo i feel
\nso much older.<\/p>\n
the rain is my friend.<\/p>\n
i lift my face toward the sky
\nletting my face absorb all that there is
\nmixing my tears
\nwith the tainted drops of the sky.<\/p>\n
and everyone else around me
\nrushes inside
\nthey are afraid of this emotion.
\nthis motion propelling me outside.<\/p>\n
it feels the pain, the sorrow
\nof what i feel
\nof what you have undone.<\/p>\n
droplets of the sky
\nroll all into one
\nfalling onto my face
\nonly to come together
\nas despair.<\/p>\n
but this is what i feel.<\/p>\n
rain on, rain on.
\nlittle jenny feels the hurt, the pain
\nbut i forget that i am not alone
\ni am not alone.<\/p>\n
only the sky knows what i feel
\nas it keeps pouring.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
