Poem
I want the rains to come Dust fills the sky and covers my 'just out of the salon' hairstyle I shout out in anger but Puffs of it burst into my open mouth Choking me... driving me into a fit of torrential coughs. I want the rains to come So i can soak myself in the warm drizzles In the drips and drops of the summer rains I want to hide and seek in the cracks of the lightning the thunderous claps will mask my screams The drops will hide my tears Why won't the rains come... When my heart echoes with my breath And breaks with every step I take into the unknown When my knees willingly bend with the weight of my loss And tears trickle down my cheeks blinding my sight I can't see you I want the rains to fall To hide my pain and wash away my sorrow It's soft pelts will arouse in me a feeling some feeling maybe... For the numbness is eating away at me Causing me to forget, to surrender to the pain To succumb to the darkness of a life without you I want the rains to come So i can forget how much it hurts to miss you
