Alley Rose

Walking through the storm

Cool wind to my back

I hear the call of the night

But I am not the same

A light shines for me

An alley rose

Found in my darkness

Gives me hope

That something so beautiful

Can be discovered

Somewhere so desolate

That maybe the world

Holds something better for me

I pick it up

And carry it near my heart

I walk in the rain

But this time

With a smile

Beautiful Rain

I watched you
Walking in the rain
And everything about you
Was beautiful
The cold drops distracting
So the world wouldn't know
And had anyone seen
My smile would betray me
And show my inner thoughts
But that's OK
Because I cannot deny
That everything about you
Was beautiful
