Pain, Pain....Go Away by Joan SerratelliApril showers may bring May flowers
and water is important for our bodies to thrive
It's one of our most basic elements
I've been taught all of this and I understand
But everytime it rains,
I hurt
My body screams in pain
I'll take a sunny day
over a rainy one
any day of the week.
I know I'm being selfish
but I don't really care
please forgive me,
but I just can't take the pain
Let the flowers whither
and the ground dry up
I, myself, am sitting here
praying for a long protracted drought! 04/09/2006 Author's Note: It's been raining for about 3 days and i am in PAIN!
