My Rainy Day

My rainy day The day is weary with rain My heart is dreary in pain My mind is fickle My emotions change like the ripples… Ripples of rain That pours down my window panes A gentle reminder of the pain that drains me… Of a life that may never be. If only you see I could be that vision I once had of me… The one that reflects the specks of decency Dignity and a harmonious reality… But when I look Through the reflections… In the collections of memories Nothing is clear you see… My visions are murky and dirty And full of indecency. I pray for more time… I wish I could rewind… To the days where my sun Would forever shine… Lay

Another of your writes that I can relate too....Writing is so very therapeutic and I find that I can write about what's bothering more easily than I can talk about it....and it i so freeing of the soul. I feel that we must have similar pasts....keep writing Lay and I will keep reading! God Bless~Mary~

Hi Lay, I just read a poem somewhat related to some of this one. "tranquility" by Mary Meade Stephenson on the soup. You might want to check it out. I thought of this one when I read it.
