rains falling in the ring

Shadows creep as we step through the storm, Raindrops fall, heavy like the weight of the norm, Echoes of the past, we’re drowning in regret, One more chance to breathe, but the river’s a threat. Footprints fade in the mud, lost in the mist, Every drop a reminder of the moments we missed, Lightning strikes, illuminating the pain, We’re running from the truth, but it’s calling our name. The current pulls hard, like the weight on my chest, Thoughts collide in the chaos, can’t find no rest, Sinking deeper in the shadows, can’t fight the tide, Each wave a memory, no place left to hide. Together we wade, but the depths are deceiving, Searching for solace in the storm we’re believing, The river’s a mirror reflecting our fears, Let’s drown out the noise, wash away all the tears.
