And On The Rain Falls The sun comes out to play After a night of storms Shines for an hour or two But then the clouds return The rain falls on and on As I look around the street Nobody is here now; Driven away by the rain The very rain which Was giving me sanctuary Now Screaming, Crying, Dying, Alone. But on the rain falls. And once again The rain falls on.

When I was low, You gave me your hand. Pulled me up; With my head out the sand. But when I got better, Your love went away. I obtained new friendships; You wanted me to pay. You walked out the door, Your explanation a mess. You left me for dead; The friend called your best. We've now not spoken, For two months, it's true. But trust me when I say; I'm not dealing without you. You knew I wouldn't cope, Yet you still walked out. With a lame excuse; That filled me with doubt. I've come to my conclusion, That your love was a lie. You stayed for that long; Just to leave me to die.

Because marriage is all unity And memories so bright Marriages should be happy And overall, just right But a hatred can bubble Up between the two And there is lots of trouble Adding kids to the brew Connected for #life, For now and for ever, Even if your wife's At the end of her tether And the worst little bit Unhappy marriages stay Fake it til you make it Marriage shouldn't be that way.

Confessions Sometimes things hurt me I don't know what's in my head Sometimes I cry a lot When I'm alone in bed Sometimes I look around And see smiling faces, plenty Sometimes I fall apart Even when pushed gently Sometimes the monsters loom From the darkness in which they live Sometimes I let them win Because I have no more to give.

Reflection Another year has come and passed; Utterly unlike the last. The good the bad and ugly alike; All have been in quite plain sight. A smile, a tear, a friendship shared; Slowly people began to care. A smile, not fake, appearing now; And thanks to you, so take a bow. You may have left, but you see... The end of a chapter was the beginning of me.
