My Rain – Written October 2003 (Aged 28)

My Rain

when you cry tears inside,
it’s those tears that never seem to dry
when the only rain you feel
is your own rain,
a pain,
not even loved ones can take away
a pain,
not even true self can fake
i thought i was different
i hoped i would be special
that i would not be like everybody else
but it’s not true,
my rain,
it’s just the same
it’s just the same as everyone else’s rain
but it’s a pain,
not even loved ones can take away
a pain,
i just cannot fake

James Garratt – October 2003
