Dark Rain

Lashing out at me in rage anger
Speaking ill of my name and my strife

Forgetting all good and the love I have offered
Your perception is yours, not truth of my life

Why such dark anger and aversion do you offer
Lurking round corners my soul tainted thrashed with this hate

Poisoning those who had not met me with your lies no regret
This reflection you cast in your dark rain is not my fate as you berate

Just leave me alone in your cowardly scorn
I’ll do my best to forgive this negatively you rain

Your words and your hatred just the inner sadness of your soul
Such sadness I see, this pain that you hold

Your reflection of you and nothing more than your pain
This is but you your dark rain , not me nor my name

This picture you've painted lines smeared you lash out
Never speaking to me these claims you cast out

such foul words that you've said, too much anger resentment built up in your head
exploding the surroundings of those that dare enter your dark dread

So leave my name not on your lips
For I have a lot of good that you do not express

And this world that you live in, it’s only your world don’t you see?
Your anger is not mine to own it’s yours, so just let me be
