The torrential rain mirrors my mood
Dark, wet, intense, cutting off air
It will eventually ease off again, I know
But in the mean-time I truly am there
In that place where shadows hunt
Where reality is twisted and strange
Leaving turmoil in its turbulent wake
With me silently longing for change
The rain recedes but leaving a gift
A beautiful rainbow, a sign of peace
In this beauty provided by nature
I find that much sought for release
My mood is lifted from the depth
Color replacing my hearts dark space
Deep breaths begin filling my lungs
The dark mood is gone without a trace
