A Portal to Peace (Somewhere Where it Rains)

Somewhere where it rains
at least some of me 
gets washed away.
Simple seems possible
Sorrow seems safe

Somewhere where it rains,
there's a portal to peace
A place to pause
Maybe even new pleasures 
to pursue

Somewhere where it rains
-beyond this dirty desert-
there's rain's constant cadence
sweeping away my silence
fooling me with its friendly falling flow

My grief is soundless
Sullen still pictures
Snippets of silent torture
Pictures pouring down
Falling foolishly
Onto a hard unyielding
dry hell.
