I Had Always Waited For This Rain..

I HAD ALWAYS WAITED FOR THIS RAIN…

The lost rhythms of my heart had found its tune again,

As I knew that you were there for me, as I knew that it had rained.

I thought I could forget you-

But, in the green meadows of my mind,

You always existed, like rain, which when showers,

Makes the long dry months a lost memory-

Makes it feel like a long, forgotten pain.

You did downpour heavily,

Wetting the deepest recesses of my unconscious self,

And I bloomed like a rare desert flower-

Embracing my metamorphosis, my true self.

It rained, rained and rained,

Until it washed away all my inhibitions-

And before I knew it, you were painting the canvas of my heart,

With the color red, by raining your love lessons.

You challenged my beliefs that I could exist,

Would exist, without your presence by my side-

But now I knew the truth, and would not fight it again,

Now I knew that I had always waited for your revival, I had always waited for this rain.

The lost rhythms of my heart had found its tune again,

As I knew that you were there for me, as I knew that it had rained.
