Rainy Days
I lay on my back with my face to the sky.
I close my eyes and try not to cry.
I try not to think of the emptiness I feel,
To convice myself that none of this is real.
The clear blue sky has one grey rain cloud,
Directly above me screaming out loud.
I feel the first raindrop and let my tears run free.
For once, the deathly silence is getting to me.
I run into the house, out of the rain,
Clutching my shoes, ignoring the pain.
I trudge up the stairs and into my room,
I chuck my shoes and lie down in the gloom.
Daydreaming now, my mind slips away
From the miserable light of this rainy day.
I lay on my back with my face to the sky.
I hear people screaming and running by.
I close my eyes and block out the sound,
Focusing on my veins tightly wound.
I feel the rain from head to toe,
And forget what I am supposed to know.
Time goes by and the screaming dies out.
I open my eyes to see what it's about.
I find myself alone in the rain,
A lump in my throat overwhelms me with pain.
I find a room and lock myself inside.
Everything and nothing, telling me to hide.
There is comfort in the rain I hear.
So far away, yet so near.
Daydreaming now, my mind slips away
From the miserable light of this rainy day.
I lay on my back with my face to the sky,
And count the seconds as time crawls by.
The silence is hurting my sensitive ears,
And my mind has a chance to whisper my fears.
The rain cloud above is just so gray,
I'd give almost anything to get away.
I close my eyes and yell really loud,
To get rid of the silence and kill the cloud.
In retaliation a raindrop falls,
I look down at the circle in horrow and awe.
I quickly get up and run inside,
Eager to go, but reluctant to hide.
I deicde to read and book and relax,
In the mood to learn some interesting facts.
I listen to the thick rain drop,
Then put my book away; it's time to stop.
