Exhaustion wrestles with rainclouds by Shannon McEwenSitting in this ever darkening room
Waiting for the lightening silver flash
Listening to the rain drip its gloom
Exhaustion begun in a mother’s womb
Living the chaos yet waiting for the crash
Sitting in this ever darkening room
Over my head the black clouds loom
Mingle with salty wetness on my lash
Listening to the rain drip its gloom
Hoping for the light of day to bloom
Where happiness wins the steady clash
Sitting in this ever darkening room
Sweep the cobwebs with the broom
Strength rebounds from a secret stash
Listening to the rain drip its gloom
Life arisen from this sacred tomb
Old insecurities swept out with the trash
Sitting in this ever darkening room
Listening to the rain drip its gloom
