I am

The rain in the storm beating down on your windows and your car.

I just want to be seen and heard and let in

But I know I can do real damage, but this anger inside me wants out. Do I pour it down on this town and stop until I don’t feel it?

The pain

The sadness

The anger

The grief is so intense that it feels like I can’t breathe.

But then, as it all washes down the drain, I feel relieved, at peace, and so much better.

I know I might have damaged a few things, but I know you needed the rain, and now new growth will come, and in a day or two, you will have forgotten me all too well.
