Rain

Beating my roof with rhythm-less cacophony
Slapping my windows with sweet revenge
Splashing my room with lightning 
Drawing down the hands of thunder
It is the rain again...

Now i will wait, and dance with the rain
let me welcome it while it intrudes...
With its strength, it billowed my curtain
making it dance to its beat

My sleep long since gone under my pillow...
now am listening,
beat on
drum on
serenade me with your loud voice
while i beckon on my sleep again
