And the rain falls.
Shrouded in loss,
Fear and despair creep.
And the rain falls,
Relentless, consuming
Undiscriminating
Encircling, constant.
Inescapable.
The rain falls.
We shelter, run for cover, hide
Grasping for protection
Searching for hope as
The rain falls.
You. Felt the rain.
Heard the pain.
Bore the stain.
Will come again.
Even as the rain falls.
