The Rain Is Listening

Have you ever felt that they're not listening?
That what you're saying doesn't matter at all
And all you've ever hoped for is forever gone

Even though it's raining outside
And you're afraid of the darkened sky
You can't help but to feel a smile
Because you know the rain is listening

The tear drops, all so frail
Search the ground for a place to rest
After their long fall, all so tiring
They want to hear the rest

Your pain is their bed time story
Their night time lullaby
That almost lulls them to sleep

They are listening
Because they care
They want you to know
That they are there

You sit in front of the window
Your breath fogging the glass
Whispering your sorrow
As they slowly streak the grass

Their cold, liquid bodies slither down the window
And I tell them I'm glad they're here
They know I feel better now
And the sun begins to peek from the clouds

And as they leave
I can hear them sing
You're content again, love
So we're done here

Great little piece, I wasn't sure where this was going, and the title didn't offer much help.. I was pleasantly surprised with your work. Well done!
