It’s started, slow, childhood, then, it’d gained, momentum, like the heavens really, needed a long AND hard cry, and, in almost an instant, it’d become, a total downpour!
Childhood rained down, there’s, NO way of stopping it, it’s still, gaining momentum, I don’t know if it’s the gravity, or was it, something else that’s making it come down so hard and fast…Childhood rained down, there’s no way we can, dodge the effects of our separate childhoods, it’s merely, a must-happen sort of side effect of our lives.
didn’t take this photo here!
Childhood rained down, it’d, hit us hard, separated us, and, before you know it, I’d gotten lost, and I’d, cried as childhood rained down, because I’d, lost track of you, I was so young, then, the rain of childhood became gentler, it’d, soothed and, calmed me down, and I’d, slowly, stopped crying now!
Childhood rained down, it’d, rained down, real hard, made EVERYBODY in its way, PAY the price, for forgetting that umbrella as they headed out this morn, ‘cuz it’s sunny, and nobody EVER bothered, to watch the weather predictions last night, so, nobody EXPECTED, that childhood would just, rain down on all of us. Childhood had, caught us all, OFF guard here………
imagine how scared this young child must feel…
Childhood rained down, but I wasn’t afraid, for I had, already, CONQUERED MY own childhood, turned the page already, and, no matter how hard childhood rained down, I stood, tall, and unmoving like a statue, or maybe, that is, because, I’d become, that statue of that concrete angel, with the upturned face, in that cemetery, located, somewhere, on this planet………
