Having anyone expereinced this. I just let my imagination get the better of me.


Rainy Nights


By: Audrey Barber


The winds are strongly blowing tonight
Leaves on the trees have fallen on the ground
Darkness prevails and shadows of the trees
Like ghostly beings are swaying away
It is cold outside, alone by myself
I think it's going to rain tonight

The winds are sounding some eerie message
The leaves on the trees are flapping in rhythm
I close my ears and lie in bed
Those shadows seem so much alive
I close my eyes alone by myself
I think it's going to rain tonight

I hear thunder, ripping around
I see lightening flashing in
The lights go out and darkness fills in
I sit in a corner and light up the candles
In the glow of the candle light alone by myself
I think its raining outside

I hear the ripple of the rain
Pitter, patter against my windows
That sound is good it lifts me up
I close my curtains and turn away
Hug my pillow and try to sleep
Tears just come I am alone by myself
It is still raining outside

I hear thunder tearing down
Lightening flashing right across my face
Is it a game they are playing
Poking some cruel fun at me
I hear a sound and sit up tight
Hugging my pillow to myself
Then through the glow of the candle light
I see you standing by my side
I am not alone at all anymore

Is it still raining outside.
