flowing down the gutter / heading for the drain
but I want to rise again / to go up
so that I can fall / again
my favorite part / of the cycle
I will never reach / the stars
but up I will go / and far
watch me

Rain is part of such an amazing cycle… but somewhere there is also the spider climbing up again.
