Analysis of The Rain



I have no more love and no more hate. The pride and the lust have faded away. Everything I touch has faded to gray. Why did you do this to me anyway? Is the love you had for me all gone? I don't understand; maybe I'm wrong. I watched as you suffered a dull, aching pain, and now you decided to show me the same. Did you not forget that I do have a name? If you look, you may find it. It's pain. So you leave me out, sitting in the rain. But I like the rain; it's my friend. It will never leave me. I know now you can see me.
