Can we be satisfied with each other every day?
It’s been raining forever
Huge drops of glassy tears saturating the earth
Slowly weeping down my window
Gentle sobbing gives way to torrent, and the tantrum begins
A translucent mirror crashes and splashes
Wonder what it will be like to have you near on rainy days
Should we drink it all in?
Will the brilliance of the sun be anticipated, or will this be enough?
On rainy nights, I hear plump kisses smack the pavement
The slick, gliding swish of passing cars are the sweetest lullaby
I think of you now, as the green becomes resplendent
Wish I could absorb you, as the earth takes in the nectar
Love to lie in open fields, and let the sky flow into me
Eyes closed, serpentine repose, baptismal wetness
Wonder if it’s dreary where you are now, if your thoughts are like mine
Are you wishing for clouds to part, and rays to peak through?
Would you prefer the rain with me, or relish the warmth of the sun
That drenches the dirty ground with it’s dry and scintillant glow
Would you cast out low lying grey shrouds, and lift them to allow for billowy pillows?
Could you take the sullen face of the wanderer as long as my hand was safe in yours?

It’s been raining here forever, and I do not miss the sun

Let the water whisper on the rooftop
