Letting Go of The Tears and The Rain



Oh, gentle rain, I let you go,
Your cleansing touch, I no longer know.
But in my heart, your memory remains,
A symphony of sorrows and gains.

And tears, I bid you farewell too,
Your salty streams, I no longer pursue.
But in my soul, your echoes reside,
A testament to the life I've survived.

No longer will I weep for the past,
Nor dwell on the shadows that overcast.
Instead, I'll embrace the present day,
And let my spirit dance and play.

So goodbye, rain and tears so dear,
I'm grateful for the lessons you brought, so clear.
But now, I'm ready to let go,
And let my heart and soul grow.

With open arms, I welcome the sun,
And all the joys that life has begun.
I'm letting go of the rain and the tears,
And embracing the laughter and the cheers.
