The Rain
And that day, it rained so hard; it took away every single thing I had ever created. I begged it to take me along with it, but it didn't. With the memories of what I had lost, I stopped creating anything at all. And it rained again. This time it took me with it. I suffered, and I struggled to breathe. I had this innate desire to survive and a wish for death at the same time. My soul was putting up a fight while my heart was giving up. Amid all this chaos, I closed my eyes. When I opened it again, I was in a place where the rain had brought and dumped me and many things. None of those things that I had created existed there, but whatever existed there was extremely beautiful. With time, I began adoring those things. I began touching those things in my own ways while they did the same to me. I didn't fear rain anymore after that moment.
