wish I could be your rain

if i could simply be
the thing that
i would wanna be,
i'll be happy to be the rain
that endlessly
pours down on you...
so i could kiss away the tears
which flows down
from your cheeks...

I shall come to you
with a promise
not to be tired
of drowning out...
of washing away...
and of melting
those bricks of emptiness;
and those walls of solitude
which you had built in bitterness...

But sadly...
I cannot be that rain...
for i have my own tears
which falls down on my cheeks...
also waitin' for some rain
to be drowned and washed away...

I could but sigh in pain
for i have nothing to offer...
only a heart
which could share with you...
could cry with you,
...in your sadness…
...in your pain.
