Rain on a Sunny Day

Rain on a sunny day
blows my mind in every way.
The increase in pour
comes more and more.
The panic sets in
as the thought within
my mind does grow:
did I roll up the window?
The effect of seats
wet with mildew that reeks
to ruin an interior that costs
too much to manage the loss.
A moment in which
my brain does glitch
forgetting what I accomplished,
giving way to doubts of what I did.
I suddenly seize
as my senses freeze,
not remembering any
of the tasks I completed.
The fear of failure
caused by inclement weather
coupled with my propensity
to forget increases the intensity
on my pounding heart
which causes me to dart
out of the doors
in this panic that attacks even more.
With arm in air
to protect face and hair
from the rain pounding down
and falling around
I arrive at the car door
unseen from within this building, this store,
to see all of my fears
instantly dissolve and disappear.
The anomaly that brought
a fear that fought
my common sense
disappears to give rest to my defense.
