Braving The Rain Poem by Andrew W.K. Yip

I walk in the heavy rain
And search in vain in a narrow lane
The tender love I once knew
To start my life anew.

It was the same narrow lane -
Where I was caressed by wind and rain.
With You then by my side, we whispered and walked together -
The fury or roar of a downpour - it didn`t matter.

Are those rain-drops on my face
Or sadness and guilt that time won`t erase?
Take, oh take those tears away,
And say You`ll forgive and by my side stay.

I brave the wretched wind and relentless rain
To search for You in the narrow winding lane.
Here I`ll remain - lonely, lost and in pain,
And I will call out Your name - again and again.

'No Greater Love than Thine'
