When the Rain Pours Freely

Oct 6, 2018
1 min read

I am no poet

But when the rain pours freely

Drenching an upturned face

And the heartbeat slows

Synchronizing with the pitter patter

Of god’s lifeblood

I can’t help but think

That in another lifetime

I too,

Was free to engulf the world

In a sin-washing tide
