Raindrop

sometimes i wish
 i am as innocent as a raindrop.
if i am one,
i can just cry whenever i want,
Land on someone's shoulder.
It doesn't matter who or what,
as all i want is to be accepted and loved by them.
If i am one,
i can be hidden from this reality,
no more troubles.
If i am one,
i can be the girl's companion.
At least i'll allow them to be weak and cry all they want.
If i am one,
i would be happy,
because children will play with me.
If i am a raindrop
i'll be oh, so carefree.

But somehow or rather,
i wish to be a tear in your eyes.
I'll appear only when you are sad,
i'll be with you through your hard times,
Never ever leave you to be alone in misery.
i'm sorry that's all i can do,
I wish to turn your mundane day into a colourful day.
But afterall, i'm still a tear who appears only in times of misery.
So,if i am a tear, i'll not appear again when you're fine.
That's when i know you are happy, and what i pray for you to be.
That's when i know i would leave you without worries with a smile on my face.
