Heavy walks in heavier rain

Makes you see the light that the sun doesn’t provide

Allows you to see through the clouds that choke the sky

Takes away the shadows that block your eyes, flooding them with realization


Heavy walks in heavier rain

Harm all will of denial, forcing the truth to set one free

Prevent the mind from protecting itself from honesty and pain

Enrages the thinker with the thoughts of a time, a thought, and a love past


Heavy walks in heavier rain

Keeps my patience at bay, requiring me to acknowledge the falseties

Hampers my willingness to bend to the lies, wanting to believe

Discourages all elements of my soul, no longer progressing


Heavy walks in heavier rain

Become heavy thoughts on a weak mind

Obliterate the illusions of a saturated thought

Jumbles the real with the fake, harming and disorienting


Heavy walks in heavier rain rips the patience from my being

Shows me the darkness that is truth


Exposes my mind to the loudness of space

Yet, I like rain.

This piece was inspired by a walk in a down pour. It seemed to attack my mood when I was lowest and made it all worse.
