I watched the rain drops fall, Sometimes much too hard, Or occasionally including a sprinkling shower With rain drops way too small. As I see the rain, I'm reminded of my tears. Sometimes they poured from my eyes, But mostly the tears, they never came. I listen to the thunder. At first it seemed so far away, Now it is booming in my ears. And it sounds like a rolling boulder. As I hear the thunder noises Of crackling rip through my mind, I'm reminded of heartbreak, Of someone with out hugs and kisses. I see the lightning flash, Flash right before my eyes. Some times it looks like a light to the Earth And others streak by in a dash. As I see it dance before my eyes I'm reminded of days that went by like that. Much to short to even get a glimpse of you, Instead, listen to my own wanting sighs. I went out to play in my wretched past For I didn't want to watch it pass. So I danced around like a foolish child, Just so my nightmares might not last. |
