Sorrow turns all things gray,
raindrops splatter effortlessly.
Falling without an end in sight ,
no mercy is there to be had.
Tears, drenched with regret,
flood from the gates of despair.
Heartache today immerses,
all happiness of our yesterdays.
No longer does the sun shine.
Where are the winds of change,
to stop the rain from falling
down upon me?
