The Rain

The rain fell hard..that night
the night when all I could do was think of you
It poured and the night sky was like velvet sprinkled with diamonds
I stared out the window and traced droplets on the cold glass
With each finger's movement I flashed to a moment
A moment with you
Where the time moved slow and the conversation was long
When I got lost in your eyes and find my way back through your smile
The wind whispered to me
it told me to find you
But you felt so far away
So I grabbed my things and headed for the door
With each step flashbacks of a touch, of a word, of a kiss
And my heart was ready to land right in your hands

It was a indescribable rain that day
Against my skin like fingertips making a trail
I stood there in the night letting it fall on me
Watching the stars peer at me like your eyes
Everything around me was mute but still at its pace

All that I wanted to say to you
That night when it rained and I thought of you
Was released into the air
Because you felt so far away
So I spoke it to the rain and let its water drip from my lips
Into the air and flow to your window pane

That night..when it rained

Moving

There are boxes involved...lots of boxes.
Pictures of trips and graduations.
Trinkets & little sentimental pieces that clutter your space but you feel serve their purpose.
You look around and your whole life is strewn about in these taped containers.

Hmm...is it wrong that I don't want to unpack yet?

'Til next time
