Rain

Splash, splash, splash….
As I slowly scribble vague letters in an crumpled paper;
The rain is bucketing over the window,
Dancing and tossing it’s raindrops along the panes…

The room gets colder…
Suddenly feeling of loneliness slinks in…
Memories keep on appearing…
Some old faded thoughts are surfacing..

I remember the house over the lonely place where I used to grow up.
Picture of my father lying on his favorite swing sets in…
The memories of my lonely childhood with my only sister is clear..
The moments with my special one is stirred..

Sigh. deep sigh … my eyes are searing with tears..
All this loneliness, now I know is at home in my deepest part
Almost all the finest pieces of my life are gone..
I must be this strong, knowing the best things in my existence had slipped away..

Splash, splash, splash..
The yellow phone rings and it jerks me to reality.
Sigh, our life is never ours to control..
I never believe that we are masters of our own destiny;
Cause for me there is this Living One who predestined all
that’s the reason why we don’t have all we want, even things that we fight for…
