Storms for a Moment

Beyond the Clouds

Rain Falling

Rain falls and hits the ground,

Washing whatever evidence there may have been away,

It makes a pounding sound,

The rain may be around for a while, but never long enough to stay.

It seems to take forever,

To all disappear,

People may say whatever,

But the rain is my greatest fear.

The rain can bring a rumble,

Causing more havoc than there's been,

It may cause me to tumble,

And stay on the ground wondering, "When?"

It's sad to see what has been around for so long gone,

But I should have known it wouldn't have lasted,

It was despised as a little fawn,

But came back in my face like it was blasted.

I guess the memories that was there was never good enough for you,

Now I'm nothing but part of your past like you are to mine,

You'll look back and just wonder, "Who?"

Instead of me being one of the people in your life that seems to shine.

I wonder if you try,

Or if it's nothing I should worry about,

Do you want to pass me by?

I doubt you'd even take a glance at me if I even tried to shout.

There is nothing to really be said,

Nothing I can try to do,

Your actions are harder than lead,

Whatever makes you happy, I only want nothing but to support you.

Let the rain fall,

There will always be pain,

I will keep standing tall,

Compared to a lot of things, this is nothing but a stain.

All I ask,

Is for you to be a little more discrete,

This is an easy task,

You can at least be neat.

We will always talk,

but never the same,

It will seem more like a "walk,"

I don't want to bring you anymore shame.

If I embarrass you,

I truly apologize,

If only I knew,

Maybe one day soon the sun will soon rise.
