Wet

The rain it drizzles but does not fall,

I'll lie on the sidewalk feeling small.

I'll sit and wait till I'm drenched like the ground,

And lay there wet, until I feel like I've drowned.

Thoughts will come and crowd my mind,

I'll sort them out till they're all defined.

Some may hurt, others might heal,

But no tears will come, no matter how I feel.

Some call me strong, but that's not me.

I just give it to God and the feelings leave me be.

Don't patronize me, don't assume I'm upset.

Don't focus on me, there's no need to fret!

Move on with your lives, forgive and forget.

I'll catch up with you, even if I'm wet.
