One of lifes most beautiful moments...

One of lifes most beautiful moments

Have you ever stood outside 
in the pouring rain 
at that one instant when 
you've never felt more free 
and miserable at once... 
When you want to laugh 
and cry in equal amounts 
as you feel the droplets 
wash away your heartbeat 
into the puddles beneath your feet. 
And you could keep walking 
and go into the dry, warm safety 
of your house, but instead 
you wait, and feel the pounding 
sheets of water roll off your face, 
down your arms, 
soaking into your clothes... 
Never felt a rain like this before. 
It washes away so much more 
than what's on the surface 
standing there, 
looking up to watch 
heavens tears fall... 
As another one of life's 
most beautiful moments 
passes, 
Just passes you by...
