no rain, no rain (1 Viewer)

[taemkitten]

It still sits dry, the land below my feet
I feel no chance of rain
Or really, so it would seem.

But the rumbling happens, I feel it deep in my bones
The cracking in the distance
The slight shake
The tightness just above my lungs
The drops come slowly at first, one by one,
Until a flood pours down across my face.

The ground below, I'm now drowning
Drowning in an ocean of salt-laced raindrops
I can't fight the rain anymore,
And I wish it to stop.
There is no break, no shield - I am on my own.

A torrential flooding exhausts me
Nothing to hold onto
No end in sight
My feet cant touch bottom anymore
And I have lost my energy
Energy needed to thrive
Energy needed to survive.

Slipping under, a final prayer;
No rain, no rain
You are too heavy for me.
Feed the crops, bless the fauna
But never drown another.
