.:Rain:. I stare out the window as the rain pours down, My head is filled with memories. Some happy, Some sad, Others I wish would just go away. I remember the day I danced in the rain. I remember the day He kissed me in the rain. I remember the day I spent watching the rain. These moments blur together in my mind. But most importantly I remember when I cried in the rain. I remember the shattering heartbreak. I feel the loneliness. I taste the bittersweet goodbye. And then it's too much to bear, I can't just watch the rain anymore. I run out into the storm. I throw my head back. I let the rain fall on my face. My clothes stick to my skin. But I don't care. I scream as loud as I can. Tears escape from my eyes once more. But then I'm laughing. My laughter is uncontrollable. All I feel is incredible idiocy. I laugh because I let those things crush me. I see how pathetic it was. Mostly I laugh because I feel free. I can run and dance and scream and cry in the rain. But no one will judge me. I can be free to do as I please. But only under the cover of rain. I laugh until my side hurts. Then I lay down on the pavement and feel the rain. And I feel nothing but joy. |
