When Rain Becomes Us

I.
Come, relentless rain—
drench us in your silver chains;
let the heavens weep.

II.
Skin to storm, we fuse—
you the flood, and I the dune,
crumbling into tide.

III.
Liquid fingers trace
rivers down my thirsty spine—
earth drinks sky whole.

IV.
Drip by drop, we merge,
until no you, no more I—
just the moon’s mirrored tears.
