Notes: Sometimes, very rarely, I feel like this. Because...well, sometimes you just need to cry without anyone seeing. Also written during a time when I was feeling somber about things in my life.

The thunder booms across the darkened sky
Hiding my sobs as I stand here and cry
The rain falls to the ground with a thud
While I stand here in the dark brown mud

Rain drops mixed with tears rolling down my face
Washing away all my dignity and grace
It soaks me to the core, so wet and cold
On and on it poured so strong and bold

I raise my head to the thundering clouds
As I express my anger and frustration out loud
Screaming to the heavens until my throat is sore
Only leaving me to cry out even more

Falling to my knees in utter defeat
Bowing my head as I quietly weep
Wishing the pain would just go away
Looking forward to a brighter day

A day when my heart won't hurt as much
A day when my spirit wasn't so crushed
When my life will have something to gain
But until then I'll just let it rain
