Rain and Seasons

I wait for the rain,
So it may express what I never could.
—And when it falls, I want it to pour relentlessly,
To match the depth of my devastation.
Though it can't last forever—
Somehow I want my devastation to fade away;
Like rain sometimes does.
I want my heartache to change like seasons do,
I need to know what—spring, summer, autumn, and winter feel like.
I want spring to express how my heart blooms like a flower.
—Summer to reflect my sunshiny life
And Autumn to embody my life crises crumbling piece-by-piece, like dead leaves.
At last, winter to express the quiet beauty of endings—cold, silent, yet breathtaking in its stillness.
                                                                    —Beloved

—What a tragedy, My life has never been as beautiful as all these seasons~
