When it rains, do you really feel it?

Do you feel it rinsing your skin,

washing away the blood and sweat?

Do you feel it soothing your muscles,

releasing the tension?

Do you feel it bleach your bones,

wiping away your impurities?

Do you feel it fill your lungs,

your first fresh breath in weeks?

Do you feel it ease your heart,

filling your veins?

Does its sound wipe harsh words from your memory,

its drops stripping your eyes of the wrong people?

Do you feel hope?

The new beginning?
