Array ( [sid] => 36160 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Rain [time] => 2004-02-24 18:44:56 [hometext] => I compare this poem to certain times in my life when I have gone downhill. It may sound wierd in the begining, but it gets good afterwards. [bodytext] => I wish God would stop raining
Stop raining on me
With his cold tears
Striking my face

Why can't He just leave us alone at times?
Sometimes, I wonder
If He's ever listening
Especially to me

Finally, the rain has stopped
My mind feels lifted
But my heart is empty
Oh well, as long as the rain stops

Drought has come into my soul
But I still don't need the rain
I can live without the flood
I can breathe without His hand

God? I need you
Your rain has stopped raining on me
And ever since then
My heart and soul has withered before You

Please, I'm begging you
If you listened to me before
Than listen to me now
I need Your rain

I'm screaming
I'm stuck in the quicksand
The sun beats down on my face
And yet I feel you walking away

Thank you for raining on me
For picking me up when I was down
I may be gone in life
But I'm living with You now

I know when I'm stubborn
I don't listen to your demands
I know now that I need your rain
No matter if it floods my soul [comments] => 1 [counter] => 186 [topic] => 11 [informant] => sickness16 [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => ChristianPoetry )
