Pain

There was a time 
When thunder was my shelter
Lightening and rain
I adored them 
Because this was where i could sob
And noone would know 
Id scream
And it could be disguised like smile
It was like hard tide hitting hard 
Every time
Just when i thought  i was gone
I was washed ashore undrowned
That day went
Like all days do
But still that terrible ten
Always hit like
A ship breaking in to two
The tears dried 
I promised my self 
To never be again teary eyed
I learned something from that cry
The heart mended
I vowed it would never be again broken 
That throb is still there
But never will i feel or cry
Or damn even sigh
The waves of time will wash over
the concealer now a blessing 
And rain a curse
