The weather inside my head

The storms keep on raging, never ceasing to end.
As the clouds cover the light from my eyes,
The rains start to fall without the end in sight.
And I find myself drenched in the tears of my heart.

Oh how I long for the beauty of spring.
The bright, shining sun that warms my heart.
For the rains to subside and flowers bloom.
I pray the dreariness of my mind will fade.

How do you make the rains go away?
To make the anger and hurt in the clouds disappear?
Lock yourself up inside, protect yourself from the hail?
But then it just keeps building the longer you hide.

I’ve tried many days to play in the rain,
That no one could see how it was hurting me so.
But then I see how much it kills me inside,
To pretend things are different from the truth.

The desire of my heart is to one day open my eyes,
And have the sun hit my face instead of the rain.
The salty rain that now fills my eyes and closes me in,
Will have finally released my heart from the pain.
