The Words by Ivan Guerrero Najera

The Words

I chased the rain away today

Looking for a shelter

And when I told her she should lay

Protected, I felt her

Soaked in the raindrops of her eyes

Because the lies I fear

The truth that I hold dear, that hides

As lightning fires thunder

Can stumble even strength of heart

And leave you to wonder

To survive a torrential start

Together and apart

Hung over and under

In love and to ponder

The words that come out of my mouth
