The rain scares me

intimidates me

loud and imposing and looming

often arriving with thunder

lightning

sometimes power outages

The rain comforts me

soft drizzles rinsing out the hardships

My virtual home

where I can make my words dance and no one can change the choreography

where I can be loved by other people like me

where I can realize that I'm not as alone in the world as I originally thought

This is when all my thoughts merge

into one big cloud

chasing me everywhere

demanding things

this is when I answer

when I walk home

when I contemplate reality

life

existence in general
