Something Else



Now the rain has left me
Hold my umbrella
So I can wave at the sun
But keep it within your grasp
As the sun may shine too vibrant
For these eyes
I can not grow
Without occasional cats and dogs
I can not relate unless
I can relate to you
More elaborate than some meadows
You long to walk through in drizzle
If you invite me to your oasis
I will come bearing gifts
To match your assets
All for the benefit of preperation
Because we like to be prepared
Whether it be weather
Or something else
Hold my umbrella, so I can wave
