Her rain fell
a deluge of broken dreams,
frustrated desires, missed opportunities
a deluge of broken dreams,
frustrated desires, missed opportunities
drenching the world
with her bitter storms
Her rain fell
a flood of regrets and sublimation
poured onto her children
drowning each of them
with her skewed and tainted love
Her rain fell
a watery veil of manipulation
pushing against the banks of reality
overflowing her boundaries
with her disillusions and dissatisfaction
Her rain fell
