I walk around town with a liquid umbrella
I'm deathly allergic to rain
I can't venture out often
Or enjoy the storm
I'm beginning to go stir crazy

My liquid umbrella does me no good
I just end up soggy and drenched
I get shaky and achy and all kinds of cranky
What's the use of this liquid umbrella

I used to walk around town with a liquid umbrella
I'm still deathly allergic to rain

The author's comments:
I hope people take from this poem, that you shouldn't always have your guard up around people or things that could possibly hurt you. Sometimes it's better to just let things happen, and effect you how they are meant to. You can learn a lot
