On a hot summers night when the air is dry, and temperatures are high, A sudden flash of light across the sky, theres movement in the air tonight, Out of nowhere it does appear, The heavens open releasing billions of lost tears, The need to reach out and catch one in my hand, feeling their moisture on my skin, To feel is to live to live is to be alive, if you cannot feel can you truly be alive? The need to stand there in nakedness, To catch those falling tears on my skin, To make up for all of mine lost over the years, Head spinning, Heart racing, Life passing me by, Flying high somewhere near the falling sky, Cant see the ground anymore, one hear my call? Last chance, last dance, lost romance, I give up i give in holdng out my hands, Surrendering in the knowledge and in the truth, that all is lost, Oh! what a price, what a cost........... |

I love the tears/raindrops parallel in this. And it works beautifully... but it leaves me feeling that it's incomplete. Perhaps soon there will be the chance to add a couple of upbeat, positive lines at the end... I hope so.
ReplyDeleteThank you I was actually writing this during a summer thunder storm the rain moved me and i just sat for ages by an open window writing. This was written some time ago. I do hope that some point in the future something will happen that will cause me to write an updated version :O)
