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!
