We flourished in the rain like stars spring up in the night
All those wet kisses that the sky could never wash away
And the jackets we shared, just to keep our arms from soaking wet
The cuddled days in solitude
While we let the clouds hide us; be our fort for the hour
One day, the sun came out
Confusing us like children who never understand death when they see it
And suddenly; there’s no need for the jackets that intertwined our scents together
Or the days spent playing house under the low hanging rain
There was only a need to shed our gloomy coats and watered down love
And to stop building forts out of clouds.
