My tears fell from the sky today.
First lightly, a slight tapping
Then they picked up
hammering on heads as
you hammered my heart.
I saw them fall where you always pulled up
Before you pulled out
They ate the sun and burped a grey shade as
heavy as my heart.
I lay in bed in the darkness, helpless, hopeless
Shedding tears in and outdoors
Thunderous roars of abandonment
A swarm of windshield wipers couldn't wipe away the desire to hold you
No rain boot known to existence to protect me from stepping into a situation that is bound to be painful.
I heard the population complain of the violent rain today
If I wasn't hiding in my bed
I'd tell them only you can stop the rain that falls from my face today
