It's Raining...

Listening to the sound of rain,
Empty. Tired. Alone.
Trying to smile the troubles away
Into the depths of unknown.

Can you see through the haze
Of qualms, worries and fears?
Have you hoped for the days
With no struggles, no losses, no tears?

Do you hear the raindrops
dripping,
dropping,
drumming?

Do you feel the happiness
slipping,
fading,
running?

I am sitting alone, in darkness.
I just want to lapse into silence.

No more music of deceitful rain,
No more chords of exquisite pain.
Only me and my tortured soul,
Only sadness and none to console.

Listening to the sound of rain,
Empty. Tired. Alone.
Trying to get away.
Nothing helps. Damn this rain!
