| The heaviest drop of water Rain and tears mingle As the heavens cry with me, Washing the ashes of burnt hearts, And shifting sands take me To a place of silence The raindrops sing, Chanting melodies Untold to another soul, In gentle waves solitude Washes over me I part my lips to speak …no sound is heard, Breaking the silence More tears begin to flow Becoming a river draining Into the deep, blue sea Blinded, I look up to the sky Letting the rain Clean my soul, Wash away my pain And yearnings for something I seldom touched Through lacy clouds I see A piece of rainbow Arched to the sky And gentle golden rays Trickle down my face, Caressing my heart Each sparkling drop becomes A memory draining, Bringing flowers from the ground, Dancing through the air, Unveiling centuries of dreams And the sun is painting earth below Mesmerized I watch The last drop falling …falling… Eternal journey from the sky When time stands still, crying The heaviest drop of water This drop is a piece of rainbow Hiding behind lacy clouds, A touch of gold Caressing our hearts, The cycle of life, hope And renewal, Nourishing new seeds |
