I go about my day,
Pretending Im okay,
Going through the motions,
As though Im moving on with life.
Even through the night,
My smile never wavers,
My eyes stay dry,
Except on nights like tonight.
The clouds rolling in overhead,
My bright blue sky covered in gray,
Nothing brings me pain,
Nothing like the rain.
Down it falls,
Washing away my little lies,
Cleaning away my disguise,
Tears fill my once dry eyes.
The sound of rain against my roof,
The earthy smell that seeps inside,
Water falling from the sky,
It makes me think of him.
Of lying on his bed,
Of listening to the rain,
Falling on his roof of tin.
Of softer touches,
Of whispered words,
Time spent together,
In our perfect little world.
Of songs he sung,
Of chords he strummed,
Of places we went,
Of the things we did.
Of tearful goodbyes,
And broken hearts,
Of awful lies,
And things that hurt.
Of never again,
And parting words,
Of waking up alone.
Of hearing him say this wont work.
Its raining tonight,
And Im probably going to cry.
Tears like rain,
That will wash away the pain inside.
