When It Rain's
The rain has been my friend since I can remember.
Each droplet of water causing me to smile and feel loved.
For all my life the only person I had was me,
A friend was just another word for me to hate.
When I am sad no one is there to cheer me up,
When I need to be held no one is there to embrace.
I fear to be alone, because I am alone,
Just a waste of the existence I was gifted.
But when it rains everything washes away.
I can smile, feel numb even if it is just for an hour.
Some may think it's just water,
But to me it is so much more.
So as I sit, I let the rain consume me whole.
For that hour I will be in peace.
The smile on my face, the sadness in my heart
All means nothing; just a passing of time until I die.
