a heart left out in the rain

---

The rain falls on our pages

A drenched parade of forgotten tears

The thunder has just begun

But this storm has been raging for years

---

The lightning blinds our vision

A perfect setting for a tragic poem

The howling wind reminds us

That nobody wants to be alone

---

It's cold and it's so quiet

Wishing somebody would make a sound

But no one's there to watch the dreams we've built

Come crashing to the ground

---

The ink is smudged and blurry

Now the message is unclear

The thunder has just begun

But the storm has been raging for years
