Drops of Water

Drops of water Drip from the darkened clouds Drops of water Aiming to cleanse the world of its sins Drops of water, drops so refreshing So calming, so rejuvenating Why, wish I they could cleanse my soul, My memories, erase from my mind those clinging shadows Those which got rooted in my life when I was yet a freshly bloomed rose When I let that which is known as love tear me up Drops of water, running down my face Causing me to almost taste those tears I've shed Bringing me to remember how desperate was I for that love Reminding how brave I could be as well For after having shed bloody tears After having lost my own dignity Why, after having lost love I did learn to be strong again Dripping drops of water shall be naught After the sun shall show its warmth Once more Drops of water, drops of water Calming, soothing, freezing yes, but Cleansing the whole world of its yesterday's sins! Drops of water, having the ability to change the surroundings Drops of water, giving life to seeds Giving strength to dry soil Giving fragrance to blossomed flowers Giving life to Earth Drops of water Giving me inner confidence Drops of water All over my shaking body Drops of water Covering me up, closing on over me Drops of water Imbibing in me, the wisdom of life's meaning! 12th August 2016
