"Weather or not" 
Its raining today 
And again I left my hat on the kitchen counter 
Right next to my ipod 
For the millionth time I'm not prepared for the unexpected 
The rain is cold and somewhat stings 
Each drop calmly walks from the tip of my thoughts to the souls of my loafers 
But yet I look so ready 
So expected of the unexpected 
My collar is up 
My hands are tucked deep in the pockets of my pea coat 
My eyes are nearly closed to protect my pupils from being flooded 
I strut through the sky's draining moment seeming to almost enjoy its drench 
I want to lie to myself and say that the down pour doesn't effect me 
But the puddles have begin to seep through my shoes 
My socks have a slight dampness to them 
Why did I wear these shoes 
If I would had took 30 more seconds to check I could had grabbed my hat 
I could had grabbed my umbrella 
If I would had stop to think, then maybe…just maybe I would had put on thicker socks 
But I….don't…stop…and…think 
I rush, I make impulse decisions and grow confused and question why the consequences are so great 
And if I can't understand the reasons then I find people to aim the tip of my fingers toward 
Point…blame 
So its just me and this rain and this mask 
Pretending, as if I'm not upset from being soak 
And the vomit of this gray cloud is all too familiar 
The wetness…its outcome…its visit 
Again I saw the storm inching towards me 
But yet I fail to pay it any attention 
Its raining today 
And again I left my hat on the kitchen counter.
