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
