Rain

One more time
a crystal raindrop
falls down
right in front of me
and waters
the burnt earth.

My dark hair
is soaked
with the innumerable tears
that fall down
from the cloudy sky.

The water on the ground
plays around
my bare feet
and forces me to take a step forward.

I can't go back.
The path I've taken
to get to this point
has been flooded
and so
there is no way back.

I just can go forward
following this path
that leads me
far away from the place
I came from.

We have just taken too much
from this beauty earth
and destroyed it
with every little step we took.
Now it's just too late
to repair the small things
we've crushed.

The rain doesn't stop falling,
it destroyed everything
and now I'm here
at the top
of this long path.
Lonely.
Nothing but this sea
around me.

Under my feet
there is still
a little spot of earth
that is soaked with water.

Now the sea
plays around
my bare feet
and I take one step forward
into the sea
of darkness.

I know I have to go
I'm still here
in this world
that was once beauty
but now defeated
by the rain.
