The drizzle of rain falling on my face Is a dreary reminder of the storming And as the chemistry finally subsides It feels like I am suddenly suffocating The silence is maddening, deafening To ears tuned into just one frequency But no matter the strength of the signal We're still just static in the symphony I'd call you tomorrow to say hello If it made a difference to more than me But my only recourse is to walk away Before my sanity elopes with the rest of me I am frozen where my feet are standing And my hair is drenched from this downpour I've learned emptiness can grow without the water But love can't swim, this far from shore
