Rain Rivers

So it should all come to this
A wet weekday history missed
“So young”

Rain rivers work around
Countless feet clamped on the ground
“Tragedy”

Black is the colour today
I’ve only just put mine away
The mud towers over your new home
The new home that you’ll never move from
The sound of soil bouncing off wood
“Did I really do all I could”
It does no good.

As raindrops crash to ground
To mix with all the tears cried all around
A tear burns down my face
I cannot keep on coming to this place

I don’t want to think about this
I don’t want to be a part of this no more

Rain rivers wash away
Confetti from yesterday
The irony, the irony

I no longer possess surprise
I have no tears left in my eyes
With my feelings dampened, I breathe on
Knowing at least this can’t go on
A plus in a minus’s world
A glimmer of hope left to hold
Myself, my gold.

As raindrops crash to ground
To mix with all the tears cried all around
A tear burns down my face
I cannot keep on coming to this place

I don’t want to think about this
I don’t want to be a part of this
No more, no more, no more
