Analysis of RAIN



Rain, its raining once again

Rain, all of a sudden the fabulous weather has come to an end

Rain, so broken, it isn't something anyone could amend

Everywhere she goes, it rains- all night, all day

Even when it starts getting better, the rain demands to stay

Even Though she tries to hide it, she can't help but wonder- "how bad will the rain be today?"

"Pain!" she said

"pain!" its starting to get to his head

"pain" she looks down at her patterned flesh 

“It hurts” she said 

“It hurts” maybe they just want her dead 

“It hurts” she doesn't know what to do, beneath her- a pool of red

Dripping from her left arm 

“Hey!,are you okay?” they said 

“Hey, come on dont cry it's okay!” maybe she wished more was said 

“Hey!I promise it will get better!” then she starts to wonder, maybe they don't want  her dead?

But then again like its always been and like it always will be 

The rain came back, the painful sting and the aching pain 

All of which comes with the dreaded rain.
