Ugly Like Rain

Life's storms are what you make of them, and what they make of you.

This life is ugly like rain,
messy, uncomfortable, cold,
dark and foreboding,
clouded in a storms anger,
obscuring a free mind
and doors to the sights beyond,
empty thresholds
keeping a dreamer inside,
not wanting to come out,
drawing, enticing, beckoning,
covering all that is good,
it saturates the very soul,
cleansing a bodie's filth,
washing away the past,
the decay forms a faceless foe
to usher in the sun,
nourishing growth to give worth,
bringing back the living from the dead,
creating a new world
and a new life,
beautiful like rain
