Let it Rain

"If there was always a roof over the ground every time it would rain, then I believe nothing would grow."

The rain was created for a specific purpose, and it should not ever be afraid to fall.
If it never does fall, it would just be hanging onto the atmosphere, and eventually forgotten.

One.

My eyebrows furrowed in frustration and disbelief. I know that I can do this, I know I can. I've done harder, I've done better. So why can't I do it? These thoughts are incessantly ringing in my mind, being startlingly haunted.

Instead I shook my head ignoring those thoughts. I must finish the task. Yellow, Blue, Blue, Green. I carefully configured the correct wiring to their proper inputs. Red, Blue, Red, Black. Sweat beads trailed down my face unto the glossy silver table. I tried not to breathe in too heavily knowing about the fumes that permeated the room. Blue, Black, Red. My heart accelerated as I strove to work faster, alerted by tick-tocking of the clock. The last wire. Red-- My throat contracted.

It was the wrong wire.
