I Will Rise Read Count : 181

When the rain descends
from the sky,
I upturn my face,
embracing every drop.
Let the clouds cleanse me,
reverse today.
Erase the blood,
the sweat -
may the Heavens cry over me
so that I don't have to.
Let the thunder clap above me,
the lightning strike beside me,
charge me,
for I am drained of the day.
Bring me back to life
because the day has weighted me,
and I am tired.
I am broken.
Let the rain melt me,
break me down further and further
until I am nothing left
but another puddle
among other puddles,
pooled upon the ground.
And after the storm is through,
let me rest.
When the ripples have subsided,
and when the sun returns,
I will rise.
