Let the Rain Fall

 

i want to write a poem

about what? i’m not sure

i just want to write and i want it to be pure

i want to express and put my soul into words

give others a feeling or a hope to lean towards

to step into my essence

my internal

my being

to allow others to feel what i feel

a lovely agreeing

agreeing with life. agreeing with now

accepting the moment

the wonder

but how?

the problem is there …

you can’t ask , you must do

let go of the question and instead be just you

be me , be you, be soul, be here

feel encompassing love and dissolve all aspects of fear

for love overpowers

it sprinkles it showers

like rain on the earth

it grows into flowers

rain isn’t always loved but still love it creates

it doesn’t care what you feel, it doesn’t care if you hate

it will continue to fall, to show up, to provide

giving to all, growing much, it won’t subside

so instead of running and putting up a shield

accept the rain and all it may yield

close your umbrella

accept the sweet fella

hey lovely rain

i’m feeling grateful you tell her

you may get me wet

you may soak my clothes

but without you

well

nothing here grows

i’m no longer scared

i’ll no longer hide

i accept the love of the rain

i’m now soaked with pride

water dripping down the cheek of my face

an eternal feeling, released but never erased

allow it to flow

allow it to show

let the rain fall

allow it all. let it go
