I love when the world is drenched in rain

It slows down the world around me

And on those damp days, I reign

It’s a puzzling place, my brain

A place I sometimes wish I could flee

I love when the world is drenched in rain

The rain gives me a chance to regain

my footing in a world that feels rocky

And on those damp days, I reign

The trickle of water down the drain

Gives me days on which I live more calmly

I love when the world is drenched in rain

For whatever reason it makes me feel sane

Perhaps it’s an idiosyncrasy,

But on those damp days, I reign

I listen to each tap on the window pane

As it travels back to the sea

I love when the world is drenched in rain

because on those damp days, I reign
