THE CLOUD OF RAIN

A dark cloud of rain drifted into my life

And for some time,

I felt good, happy…

I no longer felt lonely.



I thought life would go on happily

In one long, long stretch of time…

But when the cold, harsh winds of change

Started blowing,

The cloud of rain had to drift away…



Life is still going on

In one long, long stretch of time…

I am not lonely.

I wouldn't say I am sad or unhappy.



But you have left a void

That would take me a long, long time

To fill.

Whenever we loose a loved one it does take a long time to get over. I am glad you are happy. I am sad that they left by whatever means. Thanks for sharing. Linda
