Wishing for the rain

Wishing for the rain,
The only thing I want.
A craving, a yearning
For the heavens to open
And pour down upon me.
Wash away my pain,
Wash away my guilt,
Wash away my shame,
Wash away my hurt.
Cleanse my soul,
Cleanse my black heart
And rid me of these scars
That lie so deep inside.
Soothing rain,
So cool and fresh,
Pouring your life down upon me.
That I may start again,
Be pure,
Be free,
Be released from this evil
That has held me for so long.
It ends now.
With this rain.
