Shapes

As hearts open to the world they inhabit
And dreams take shape
Some small, still shivering from the shock of birth
Others grown and gaining in strength
As days pass

The rain falls
Oblivious of all that occurs
Beneath it
It flows down
In a cooling curtain

Washing away
Fear, doubt, anger

Dreams and hearts moulding themselves
Into multi-colored shapes
Pounding 
Like ravanous beasts
Eager to be fulfulled

Salty drops of sweat 
Merging with rain water
Stirring
Making things happen

I liked the first half, very much. Then I thought you rather lost focus...
