i was made for the rain
i was created with the intention to sing in thunderstorms
to smile drenched in heavens tears
to stand with hair dripping
sopping wet
soaking the plush carpeted floor of your ninth floor apartment
which was new to you
as was my sudden lack of sarcasm
and my quick breaths
shaky hands
quivering lips
worn out eyes
my tears that did all but dry
you wept
at the sight of me
i was always an ugly crier
you hugged me
a small gasp escaped my mouth
you whispered comfort into my ears
the pain of all the yesterdays left me
if only for a moment
