A loud booming –
the sound of everything I fear coming true;
of everything I treasure falling apart at the seams,
like the thin thread connecting us snapping into two.
The pitter-pattering –
having everything coming together and then falling apart;
breaking away seems so easy, natural even;
as with all the things that could have been.
The bone-chilling cold –
a feeling that would stop anyone dead in their tracks;
same as your words: sending chills down my spine
Life and sunshine –
absent from your distant gaze past me;
I don't remember the last time your presence enveloped me in warmth
Strangely, all I think about on rainy days is you. You, you, you and just you. Maybe between me and you, the roles have been swapped: you are now cold and unfeeling, and I warm and full of emotion. But foreign isn't always harmful, and safe may not be safe after all. So really, thank you.
