Love is like rain

Love is like rain-
It washes away stains,
Erasing past pains

Love is like rain-
It pours down on our hearts,
Leaving permanent marks.

Love is like rain-
It strikes us deep
And keeps us from sleep.

Love is like rain-
It drips through our hands,
Can’t hold on—never can.

Love is like rain-
It hurts so good and helps so bad,
Sometimes it even makes us mad.

Love is like rain-
It comes and it goes,
It causes all things to grow.

Love is like rain-
It pounds inside
It makes us want to hide.

Love is like rain-
It bids us to cry,
Until the day we die.
