"I have no Pride, I have no Shame, you've got to make it Rain" - Make it Rain - Tom Waits
My tears fall like rain, saturating my soul with their release...
Tom says so much here that touches me. Truly there are times in our lives where we have to make it rain. We have to let the tears wash over us an cleanse our souls.
"Without her love, Without your kiss,
Hell can't burn me, More than this.
I'm burning up with all this pain.
Put out the fire, Make it rain!"
When we feel great pain in our lives, whether it be loss, scorn, or any other emotional scar and it feels like the most excrutiating pain in the world. We can think that even Hell can not feel as awful as this. We are stuck letting that pain sweep over our hearts and burn it to ashes. In these moments if we can let the rain fall from not only our eyes, but also from our soul, it can free you from the pain and extinguish the flame in your heart.
