Life's Rain

The rain

it's plain

falls often

on our lives.

The times that come

the moments that go

interrupt the way

of life's perfect flow.

These times of trouble

that we often find

only exist

in a muddled mind.

But never the less

this rain is real

and always affects

the way we feel.

We hurt inside

and shed a tear

but this is not

our greatest fear.

We're afraid that others

will think us weak

when the tear we shed

is at it's peak.

But what goes on

inside of us

is a cleansing from

an emotional fuss.

Just as the rain

from heaven above

our tears they renew

the lives we love.

The troubles then seem

to fade away

and behind them leave

a refreshed day.

So when the rain comes

and leaves us hollow

rest assured with its cleansing

comfort will follow.
