Awash the Rain
The smell of rain is near
Simply to feel so right
Moments nearing to dear
Have I no longer the need for sight
Simply to sniff is endearing
Along with the wind from once a great distance
The ever reddish skies as promising
As the evening draws to a close in a mere instance
Shall it come, let it come
Let the rain wash me away... along
And I wouldn’t run nor outrun
Simply for today... to the rain I’ll belong
It is real... unlike humanities
It is simple... unlike human beings
An open window without securities
Yet a closed door will security brings
Moments away drawing so near
Simply to feel so right
And no longer need I fear
For the rain shall wash me away this night
