Downpour

The vapours cool down as rain

To sweep away all the memories

In the old lane

Many unzipped the umbrellas

Many secured themselves under a roof

Many were uninterested in anything

The umbrellas were brightly coloured In the downpour, trying to remain dry

Hiding beneath the colours are many

What is the message that the eye is welcomed with,

When the sky above us is in pain?

Groaning with the wings shattered

What becomes of all these bodies?

Have had their lives shattered by anguish,

With their bodies hunched low,

The patting of the rain is slowed

I slip away from the look of sun

Rising above all
