Please stop the rain

It sits below the horizon

Creeping up on you

Eyes open or closed.

Invisible to the eye

biding its time

Just under the surface, always at bay

Difficult to stop

Impossible to wipe away

Feeding on memory and imagination

Rising up like a tsunami

It knocks you down without warning

And just as suddenly comes the pain

Will someone please stop the rain
