Raindrops fall
Tapping on my window
Drifting thoughts
Reliving memories
Tears of joy
Falling heavily
Drowning the soul
In happier Times
Steel shoulders
Crumble beneath
The weight of the past
Pain surges through
Veins of impurity
While searching for answers
To age old questions
A never ending journey
Traveling alone
With hope in my heart
And faith as my guide
Forging on
Through the shadows
Between reality and fantasy
Carrying a burden
To great for any one person
Teetering on the edge
Of sanity and insanity
Clawing at the surface
Avoiding a breakdown
Desperately holding on
To once happier times
