To feel trapped within in a world that stands so open

is to be overwhelmed by the pouring rain

trying to look up

to gather some sense of whats going on

but seeing nothing as the piercing needles force you to blink

you see only glimpses of whats going on

but keeping your eyes open hurts,

so you keep your head down

and close your hood

with your hands in your pockets you walk off

the feeling of the rain enclosing you

in this space where you can hardly breathe

the raindrops slamming down all around you

trying to force themselvs through your jacket

theres no point to run

or sit down and cower into a ball

you’ll be just as trapped

the world a big blur around you,

if only you knew that a few steps ahead the sun will break through the clouds

and you’ll be able to raise your head again.
