the rain beats endlessly 
upon the ears 
it snakes it's way inside this house 
wrapping itself around the grief 
and drenches us with sadness 
the Sun resides in a far off place 
where smiles await 
where joy finds refuge 
in time 
the storm will remain here 
will darken these rooms 
and blur the days ahead 
what light finds it's way 
will only serve to cast shadows 
i will understand her grief 
i will wait beside her for the cloud to unwrap itself 
for she is her father's daughter 
and i know so well 
this storm

the storm has come
