As The Rain Fell (Poem)

As the rain fell, she stepped outside

Nowhere to go, nowhere to hide

Numb from the pain, broken by lies

A smile no longer could disguise

The river of tears she had cried

No matter how hard she had tried

Those feelings never would subside

Now was the time to cut all ties

As the rain fell

In nature she chose to confide

That all was lost, no hope, no pride

And as life drained from tired eyes

Smiled one last smile, bid her goodbyes

Embraced her fate, in silence died

As the rain fell
