Rain Dance

I should have known better
To see what I could see
My black shroud
Holding down my feelings
 

A pillar for my enemies

Tap

Tap

Tap

Splish Splash

FLASH

CRACK

 

BOOM

The world outside is what I am on the inside

A raging storm

I am under the weight of living...

but something better is here and still coming

I can feel it creeping sweeping seeping in

I can feel it in the different levels of my home

The basement is winter

The heat is walking up the stairs

My bedroom is on fire

I love it

I live for heat

I've been waiting all winter for this

Warm glorious unadulterated weather

The rain called me tonight

I slipped outside

and I danced

I danced in the pouring rain

In the dead of night

When Plover slept

It washed away my sorrow

It stole away the stress

It cleaned me

Cooled me

Quenched my thirst

My footprints live on the porch

I am Icarus

I am reborn

Drenched in ambition

Soaked with happiness

The world as I know it is changing

It's always changing

I think I'll be like the rain

I'll make a beautiful noise

I'm on my way to something brand new

Tap Tap Tap

Splish Splash

FLASH

CRAAAACCKK

BOOM
