The Black Rains

 
 
Underneath the shade of misconception
words that don't mean a thing
weigh heaviest on broken wings
 
silence sings and emptiness rings
words curl up and drift away
their meaning lost when no one stays
 
wounds never heal, insecurities bleed
in the dark, the black rains come
seeking redemption, then drowning the need
beneath the stains of time, the feelings disappear.
