It's like a distant memory,

One nearly forgotten, and yet so familiar,

It should've fallen victim to the flow of time,

Yet it didn't, and just wouldn't disappear.

What's so strong to protect it, and make it stay?

Is it joy or love, is it showing me a way?

Is it fear or terror, leading me astray?

Why does it keep bringing me back to that day?

I pushed through the rain, Stood up as it poured down, I endured the pain, Refusing to drown (my sight on the crown). And at last, the darkness faded, The rain stopped, the cold vacated, The clouds parted, light shone through, The sky was back to being blue. -Ven
