Many miles I have flew this earth
Many years of time unfold
Many a voice in the night I have heard
I wish things were different
Or I could make an exception
I get the feeling I am tired of it all
And wish it were over
But I am the rain goddess
Queen of the storms
I live in the ocean, in the rivers
I fly the storm clouds
You hear me in the wind
You feel me in the rain and mist
Every drop washed away my guilt
Every drop washed away my pain
Every drop watered my skin
And deep inside, I heard my roaring
In the dark I stay
Not venturing out I’ve become afraid
A sea of tears I have cried
A great lake of tears I have filled
I let the tears run, its waterfall again
Lost in my world I’m drowning here
Nothing makes sense, nothing is clear
I felt motionless
Like a bird with broken wings that couldn’t fly
Yet here I am after all these years
The goddess of rain with broken wings
It just doesn’t seem right
It just don’t feel like my life should be done
A beautiful browned eyed I would be
But my precious face the world will never see
My eyes are tired from all the rain
I wish to be free
But all I see that will never be
The house that I had made a home
Is now a prison to my life
I dream of love yet all the while
If time comes
Many tears for sure then will rain again my eyes
But the rain is under control
Because happiness is on its way
Can we find each other soon?

Just a reminder of the additional award. You can choose to have 30 points gifted to you from me to host a contest, or we can do a contest together or I can write a poem for you. Please let me know when you can and I will oblige. The other two have chosen to have poems written for them, but it's not what you have to choose.
