Today as the clouds formed overhead, I went outside to watch the sky. I waited patiently for the rain to fall so I could finally cry. As the drops began to fall, I let all of my tears go. I released all of my sadness so that no one would ever know. As the water ran down my cheeks I felt the air becoming cold. I was soaked through all of my clothes and I shivered for a moment. Then my sadness turned to anger and I began to burn with rage. I finally ended up with emptiness as the clouds above began to fade. With each final drop of water that fell, I let go of all of my pain. I left all of my tears running into the earth as I finally saw the rain.
