Healing Rain

The rain fell upon me It revealed my destiny My pain was washed away My heart would never again sway Yet why do I feel the way I do? Why do I search for something new? At night, my heart weighs me down Endless stars I try to count It feels like I have lost my aim The only thing left with me is my name I gently close my eyelids once again I searched for the rain that once washed away my pain It had now dried up Leaving me hurting, with none to fill my cup I longed for restoration But sunk deeper into desperation It felt like a storm inside my head Before me, both faith and fear were laid Was there a choice for me? Would my eyes be able to see? I saw myself falling My knees got weak and I felt like crawling I searched for an open door A door that would end my heart's war My lips could utter no more My spirit would not soar I shut my eyes tightly and kept my pace As darkness crept in, I saw myself in another phase There was a bright light shining A voice of hope within me whispering I found a way My burdens, I had to lay The rain washed away all my pain And there I saw my destiny A destiny of hope and eternity
