The sky is overcast. There is incessant rain. It looks like it will continue like this for a week. The roads are already muddy and full of puddles. The streets are congested, the drains are overflowing. The glorious smell of the rain is now turning to a stench. The days are gloomy, and the nights are restless. I am irritated and tired. I want to sleep. Still weirdly, when I close my eyes, sleep doesn’t come easily. And when it does, I dream strangely. The dreams make me anxious, and the morning makes me crib.
To think of it, rain is like a double faced person. It looks good and inviting only from the outside. But the more you get into it, the more trouble you are inviting.
Maybe for a change, I won’t mind a familiar yellow face peeking out from the cloud tomorrow. Or maybe I can stay in my bed and enjoy the rain from my window tomorrow.
I don’t know what I want. Puzzle mind, you see!
I hope you feel better soon. π
