Braving the storm
<p>Something wicked this way comes </p>
<p>Looming heavy in the distance</p>
<p>Not knowing when or where it's from</p>
<p>You question then what is it</p>
<p>As sorrows fall like small rain drops </p>
<p>Alighting on your soul </p>
<p>And shivers rack you toe to top </p>
<p>Til all over you are cold </p>
<p>And shame and guilt rain down in time</p>
<p>A steady pouring rain </p>
<p>And shelters out you cannot find</p>
<p>A place to hide from pain </p>
<p>And every inch and every step </p>
<p>Every thing becomes a chore</p>
<p>And we dig deep down to find what's left</p>
<p>Moving onward through the storm</p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
