Dark And Rainy Night

Twas a dark and rainy night
When you cast a shadow brighter than the day
When you scared the heavens with your words
When your absconded with the stitches that held my heart

Twas a dark and rainy night
When I sang songs of sorrow like the angels of death
When I was tempted to pay my maker a permanent visit
When I could no longer motivate my spirit

Twas a dark and rainy night
When the pain I consoled others for became my own
When the thunder muffled my screams, leaving me unheard
When my love was replaced by hate or at least a mimicry of it

Because if I'm being honest, I couldn't hate you even if I tried
And trust me, I have tried so hard
But I suppose it is one of those things that we cannot overcome

So for now, that dark and rainy night
Is what I cling to
In my attempt to hold you in contempt
As much as I can't hate you, I won't stop trying
