    *A Droplet Of Rain*


    A droplet of rain
    Falls onto my face
    I am lying in my bed
    Trying to say grace

    Upon further inspection
    I can see
    There is a hole in my ceiling
    The size of a pea

    So I clog it with some gum
    And tried to get back to sleep
    Only to have the gum fall out
    And get stuck on my feet

    The droplets began to come
    The rain pouring outdoors
    I'm thinking what to do
    So I don't get water on the floors

    The hole has grown now
    To the size of a dime
    The water is falling quicker
    I am running out of time

    Now it begins to pour
    My room is getting wet
    I have to save all of my possessions
    Including my pet

    I suddenly hear
    A cracking noise of some sort
    And the ceiling collapses
    It feels as if I am at port

    My room is a goldfish bowl
    An aquarium if you will
    I use my bed as a raft
    And try not to get killed

    A river is cascading
    Down the center of my room
    It will surely carry me
    To my utter doom

    With waters like rapids
    And feeling of ice so cold
    I ride the killer waves
    And wait for the adventure to unfold

    But wait what's this
    A sound so keen
    I awake from my sleep
    To find this only a dream

    Thats good... kind of exciting... but i think instead of haivng it be a dream, you make it have a meaning.. like you said you were trying to say grace, and your clutching to your possesions as this water pours... maybe this water could be symbolic in this sense, like your consiousness breaking through its bounderies.. or somethin:) haha, thats where i thought it might be going.
