thank god.
the overwhelming feelings are dampening down like the rain falling in Canberra right now.

rain.
it soothes my soul.

nothing much is happening right now.
but i figured out the difference between loving him, and being in love with him.

like how the rain doesn't care how it falls,
it doesn't matter where it lands in the end.

like how the rain flows and washes away,
it cleans whatever hurt, pride, misery, distrust or hatred.

all that's left is the smell of the earth,
and somewhere deep inside is a new seedling waiting to sprout again.

the rain will feed my soul.
i will grow again- pushing past all that dirt and soil.

i will thrive. i will flourish. i will bloom;
i will stand up tall and face towards the sun;

i will live, and i will not stop for anyone.
