Let Me Be Poem by Laila Gabanes

Please let me be with the rain
To hide the tears dripping down my face
Let me befriend the thunder
So it can drown my screams

Give me space to breath,
let me able to feel my face
I would run not to hide
But so I could feel my feet again

Let me embrace the darkness
Sleep with it for a while
And when the sun shines,
my sorrows will surely fade

Soon, it won't be long
I'll stand up and be myself again
As for now let me be with the rain
And the thunder be my friend..
