April Showers Bring May Flowers
It was a dark, rainy night in April when we broke up. We had just gotten through a very heartfelt and emotional conversation, about his feelings. The barista told us that the coffeeshop was closing, and gave us the leftover scones for free. It was in the foyer, between the door to the outside world and the door to the inside of the coffee shop, was when he stopped me with a hand on my shoulder.

"I think we should break up," he said, solemnly.
"I knew it," I replied.

And I did. He had told me two weeks before about his feelings, and I pretty much knew that it was over, however reluctant I was to admit it. It wasn't the fact that we had just broken up that hit me. I mean, yeah, it was painful, but it was what he said after that short, quick death of our romantic ties. We looked up at the raining black skies and I said, "I hate the rain."
"We need it," he replied

To this very day, I wonder whether he meant the ground needed it (we had been having a dry spell), or us (meaning him and me). Then today, I was listening to some Finnish rock music (from where I am from), and a part of the song said (translated of course) "...the rain cleans away the tears." Which is true. The "rain" which we all must experience sometime or other, and the tears we cry with it, will be washed away when it's all over. So even though the rain is pouring down on you, and the tears are flowing, when the sunshine comes, the rain and the tears will be dried up.
