I stand outside and the rain pours
Down on me, drenching me, melting me …
I feel the water entering the pores
Of skin that is mine, the life that is mine …
It’s been a long time standing like this
While people stare, sky stares, this world stares …
I feel there is something I miss
My eyes with a sight, the eyes with a sight …
There is a shelter nigh and a long road too
And both beckon, a rest beckons, a struggle beckons …
I feel my mind is unsure of these two
Choices that call, the decisions that call …
I need to do something before night falls
And cloaks the road, cloaks the shelter, cloaks me …
I feel the need to break these walls
That have my faith imprisoned, the thoughts imprisoned …
