My mood is the rain
Drizzling on down
Drop by tiny drop
Tears down my cheeks
Whispering of sadness
But never staying long
To heal the sorrow I feel

My mood is the clouds
Darkening the sky
And hiding the sun
Empty promises like
An empty soul
Dark and dreary
Just how I feel

My mood is the wind
Screaming through the trees
Never lingering, never comforting
A hollow thought
A lingering voice
Whipping the world
And leaving nothing behind

When I'm this empty
Nothing can save me
I should be happy
I have what I wanted
And yet nothing at all
I'm begging for a savior
I want to believe

How can everything feel
Like I'm drowning in rain?
I wrote this poem last week when it rained every day and half of my friends were out of the country. No, I don't feel this way all the time. And I know I'm not a poet. But it was honestly how I felt, so I've decided to post it. Take of this what you will. I'll probably end up editing it later when I feel like it.

I just remembered that I wanted to reread this, so I did. It's still perfecto. :heart:
