Two Poems for a Rainy Day
Poems Inspired by Rain
Downpour
I am raining in your living room
staining your Oriental rug
I am flooding your piano
and floating out the couch and chairs
I am overflowing darkness
and everything is wet
I am falling in your bedroom
swimming in the carpet
Are you drowning in the ocean
I am spilling onto you
cascading through your life vest
and sinking past this room?
I am raining through the walls
pouring into your house
drenching, smearing you
and washing it all out
In the Rain
Drops of rain on my wiperblades
I notice while I'm on my way
All of this has just been too much...
Never knew when to say enough
All those yesterdays,
fall into place...
Suddenly i can see your face
I see you now,
see you standing in the rain.
Did I put you here?
Am I to blame?
Would it just be worse if not the same?
What am i doing here,
standing with you in the rain?
Watching you cover your eyes
all this time you were covering lies
I never knew what you were going through
you never let me inside
Falling on me...
everything
is falling on me
in the rain
where do we go from here?
I will go anywhere with you
And I'll see you through...
See you through the rain
