Rain



Fifteen years old she can smell the rain as it hits the ground
Her mother is saying dad is dead he was found
Years of confusion she becomes detective of her life
Uncovering secrets leads to dads  murder weapon missing a knife
You need help! They scream while stabbing her to death
50 years old she's put in the ground
And it starts to rain.

About this poem

A woman finally finds the truth when the last thing she hears is ... You need help... It starts and ends in rain.
