Rainy Days

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!

  1. Most of the places including where i stay has witnessed an abundant rainfall this season and yeah we all get too tired of the same repetitive pattering and the discomfort of managig usual chores, however deep down we also crave it too during its absence. Lovely expression of your thoughts and feelings!

  2. Hahahaha I like second para the most, I think you just need, mmmmm not answers or advises for sure, have some sleep. I was not sure why I followed you but that second para makes you worth following. That’s a compliment, πŸ‘‹πŸ‘‹

    1. You got the whole idea right. I just want to crib and sleep πŸ™ˆ. No answers no advices.
      Second para was the first thought I had in my mind before writing this whole post. I am glad you like it and found my blog worth following. Glad to meet you Shivam.

  3. I found myself, after your first paragraph, a little disappointed that this piece wasn’t longer. Here’s an author who appears to have an eye toward what she wants to day and the will and skill to say it.

  4. Beautifully written thoughts. Especially the second para. I enjoyed how you brought in the “puzzled mind”. A state very familiar to every one of us.
    Haha on a lighter note, how about a rain coat?
