It Just Another Rainy Day

There are times when my joy is taken 
from me 
and the rain starts pouring out of me 
my heart starts to pull me in different 
directions my emotions take the best
Of me 
aim fighting to keep my dreams 
from becoming nightmares
I try to reason telling my self 
I will prevail 
my positive I seen turn into negatives 
my energy striped from me 
my sorrows I keep locked 
inside of me so that no one can see
My smile hides the hurt that hugs my heart 
my laugh is a front to throw off the pain 
that bumps threw my vain 
that feeds me the victim with anger 
to weak to fight for love seems to 
have blind me 
to tired to run for I been down 
this same road many of times
Is just another day going bye
Not coming back 
the same watery clouds 
in my eyes no sign of clearing 
no sun to brighten up my day 
and bring me joy
