Purple Rain
Darkness befalls about me
Upon the heaviness of my heart
Pain drips from my every pore
Bleeding tears of loneliness
To rhythms of the purple rain
Aching for love you took from me
When you disappeared so suddenly
Burning for that honey exhausted dry
To fill gaping trenches in my soul
The one remedy that would ail me
Heal the ache I feel for you
With every ounce of my being
Longing thirst for your essence
Your smile your voice
Craving the warmth of you
In this purple purple rain
