The pain

Isn’t washed off in the rain

Dried blood

On your lips and chin

Flashing lights

Hurt your eyes to begin

See you

Walking on and on

In my hour of need

You’re flowing towards me,

walking in the rain

You said

“I need welcome relief”

Words that

no one stopped to hear

Knees tremble

There’s gut wrenching fear

Blood red

Eyes, I need to be near

In my hour of need

You’re flowing towards me,

walking in the rain
