Inattentive Rain

I can’t pretend it’s just a fable playing out insideOr just a feeling on the rise simply trying to hideAnd every time I feel the water falling all aroundIt wraps around me on the way to forgotten ground

But on my skin it burns with the touch of the sunA pain I can’t escape no matter how fast I runAnd so I stand there all alone in this ocean of painScreaming out the story to the inattentive rain
