honestly its one of the simplest things on earth.
it happens every so often, and its one of the things we bonded over.
we both loved it, and didnt understand why everyone didnt feel the same way.
you promised me so many times that we would sit and watch it together one day.
that sounded like the greatest thing on earth.

now i look outside my window and i see it, but i dont feel happy anymore.
because you dont promise to watch it with me anymore, we dont and cant promise eachother anything anymore. it used to be a symbol of hope for me and you, even though other people think its bad luck.
you made me one of those people.

so now i sit here by myself and watch the rain,
Finally understanding that when it rains, it pours.
