Stop the rain

The burden of what we bear inside is hard to bear,
Especially in a world that battles to care,
We long for a peace that we’ve only once known.
When we were young but now we’ve grown,
We long for the days we looked upon tomorrow,
Yet now every tomorrow bears more sorrow,
Yet, even though we can never stop the rain,
We can find a place that heals the pain.

We don’t remember what sunshine looks like,
The chilling cold that escorts the rain begins to bite,
We watch the drops fall to the ground,
With them our hopes and dreams fall all around,
We watch as the rain beats upon our window,
At the same time our tears rest on the pillow,
The rain will always fall,
We could never stop it at all.

If the sun won’t shine outside,
Perhaps let’s allow it to shine inside,
As our hopes and dreams fall to the ground below,
Let them be the seeds that allow more hope to grow,
As we shed pain-filled tears,
Let them give us the resolve to face our fears,
Although we can never stop the rain,
We can find that place that heals the pain.
