"Don't Hold back the Tears"

The sound of thunder in the distance,
Can mean the return of rain,
Or it could be simply that there is static electricity discharging
From the dust in the air, because of the lack of rain.
It all revolves around the rain,
It seems.

We can let the rain
Come and flood out our dreams, or
It can feed them.

Let the thunder roll, but do not be afraid; a sound
Cannot hurt you, but can give you information.
Take the information and use it, absorb it so
That you will be better prepared for what
Is to come.

The rain can also wash away the tears, that our
Chaotic, Violent World causes us to shed.

Tears Are good; they release the
Pent up anger and the Anguish
That our lives tend to
Create.

Don’t hold back the tears.
Let the raindrops fall.
