Analysis of Soft Summer Rain



At last the darkness has cleared
Along with the suffering you soo long feared
Never again will you have to push
Back the dreadful longing or push back the tears
Or the memories of all those past years
You won't have to bear the pain
They bring up inside
Never again feel cornered or the need to hide
You've finally found the comfort within
Buried way down deep inside
washing away the darkness
Taking with it the madness
Like a soft summer rain
Gone is the heartache sorrow and pain
God has granted your release
Its going to be okay now
Please let go, and rest in peace
