Please Tell Me It’s Raining
Please tell me it’s raining.
It’s not sunny and warm.
If the Sun is shining
It means you are gone.
Don’t leave me the sunshine
and a heart that is blue.
Come inside and listen
while I explain to you.
My eyes can’t be crying
over something so small.
I said you could leave dear.
It won’t matter at all.
My lips are quivering.
My cheeks are all wet.
Please tell me it’s raining
and I’ve not lost you yet..
This note that I’m holding
says you’re honest and true
but the words I’m reading
they are all turning blue.
It must be those raindrops
turning your note to blue
for if it’s not raining
It means I’m losing you.
My eyes are both cloudy.
They seem hazy and gray.
Can’t see what I’m reading
that says you’re going away.
It’s got to be the wind
causing pain in my heart
for if it’s still tranquil
then surely we’re apart
Because it is raining,
If that’s what’s keeping you
then there still is some time
to say that I love you.
Please tell me the Earth moved
and the world is shaking
for my body is trembling
cause my heart is breaking.
Please tell me it’s raining
I can’t take any more!.
Is it you that I see
coming back through that door?

"I said you could leave dear.

This touched me - I know this dynamic very well and for once you have provoked me into a positive review of a love piece.
Haven't used the term 'poem' because I'm sure it is a song. Have you put it to music? If not, find someone, please.
Thanks D.D. - Wow. I never picked up on the rhythm this possesses. Better still, that it touched you.
I have no musical contacts. They are all gone or no longer involved. I sense that you are not fond of love poetry but really like love songs. Is that true?
No, not really - it's the way you tell 'em....
Oh Phil - the write deeply stirs this reader's emotion with its weathered appeal - - - love sometimes becomes so sadly one-sided it can and does indeed break the heart.
Thank you, Fay. I think I write about rain too much. Although it easily lends itself to love's disappointments.
Thanks for the read and comments.
Brilliant!
Thank you, L.B. and for the Fav as well.
This is terrible Phil .. terribly well thought out, terribly well crafted and writ .. and terribly touching and sad ..
