A storm creeps in, closing the day
Darkening skies, clouds of grey
Thunder explodes as they collide
Once driven by the fire of love
Now burning away, like incense
Leaving the fragrance of memories
Love is neglected
Struck by lightning (or life?)
Tears wash away with the rain
Love is slowly forgotten
Claws of monotony grasp tightly
Shattering any remains of shelter
Silence...
Hardening of the soul
Thunder once more
Confusion...
Screams for help...
Cries of pain...
...or is that laughter I hear
in the sounds of the rain?
