CAN'T STOP THE RAIN

Darkening sky, Earth in shadow
Diminish the exposing light
Blue to gray, emotions convey
A sense that all is right

Scented air, soothing rhythm
See the clear blood flow
Raise the worms; meet nature's terms
Purged Earth is now aglow

Technology expands, man advanced
Presumes the world his domain
Promotes mass destruction, overproduction
But he can't stop the rain

Purity new, absolve in cycle
Stand witness to rebirth
A lightning flash, thunder crash
Replenish the soul of Earth

Intimate embrace, engulfing rain
Steam appears upon receipt
Rain ignites, sensual delights
This flesh throbs in the heat

Keep me down; weaken my heart
Hurt until I writhe in pain
Covered in mud, steal my blood
But you can't stop the rain

Uninfluenced, rain the constant
Consoles and helps sustain
Dilute my tears, cleanse my fears
But you’ll never stop the rain
