The Rain's Blues

I know you don’t like me
But you need me
I know you don’t want me
But I’m necessary
Whether you like it or not
I’m here
And I’m gonna keep coming your way
As long as I need to
As long as you need me to.

All of my positive intentions
And all you think of is yourself
And how it would be better if I go
For your sake
What about everyone else’s sake?
What about Earth’s sake?

Yeah you get your umbrella
For protection
Coz I’m gonna come down on you so hard
So hard you won’t know what’s hit you
And because you hate me so much
I might just ruin your day.

Hmmm. Strong evocative poem

Hmmm. Strong evocative poem of many intentions. To be filed away under rainy days and thinking of *you*. ~A "...when it agrees with reason and it will benefit one and all, then accept it and live by it." ~ Buddha
