Rain`s on the way...

The skies darken over head
for clouds are rolling in
there seems a heaviness
I can feel it begin

the air starts to change now
a weight upon my shoulders
the first large drops of rain
makes the day seem colder

every drop of rain seems heavy
splashing upon the ground
I hear them in my mind`s eye
as they're landing all around

sky looks so foreboding
it`s like the dead of night
almost claustrophobic
wow, such an eerie sight

then the flood gates open
torrential rain pouring down
thundering on the roof tops
feel I'm going to drown

curled up safe on my sofa
this is where I`ll reside
let the stormy skies continue
for I`m warm and snug inside.
