No one sees my tears when I’m walking in the rain

Thoughts tumble over precipice like a runaway train

Swirling around in torrential emotions no way to restrain

No one sees my tears when I’m walking in the rain

There’s no denying my heart’s a delicate terrain

Beats free-falling cascading flowing o’er and o’er again

No one sees my tears when I’m walking in the rain

Emotions run amok like tsunami can’t contain

Blood pulsating racing through my vein

No one sees my tears when I’m walking in the rain

It’s war on the bodies of women and girls. It’s children massacred. It’s insane … this pain

Setting up like storm for a cloudy-dark reign

No one sees my tears when I’m walking in the rain

It’s raining

I’m going walking

For …

No one sees my tears when I’m walking in the rain
