"Trail to the Storm"

Sitting lost on a stone cold bench,
Directions scratched upon a page.
An inkless pen is thrown far off,
Where on it drips the drops of rain.

Despair is a cloud within these skies,
Where she weeps her heart for me.
You'd think it'd be a comfort,
But all I feel is raining pity.

I lay my head within mine hands,
And mix my tears with mother natures cry.
I shout up to the heavens.
An empty space of growth or life.

 

Above the thunder rolls and rumbles,

How a father scolds his child.

My heart is saddened at its answer,

But then my eyes soon meet the sky.

 

A crease of light falls down on me,

Richly woven with true warmth.

And below me lies Gods blessing,

A shadeless flower, stained from the storm.

 

 

Author notes

-Water Drops-

The rainbow is God, and the poem is about how when we're lost in this world God wants us to find Him so badly that he'll send a storm. We are the flower, and without God we have no worth and no true color.

    There indeed is a small light within the dark, and as we find it we see the beauty which was there all the while. 's
