~A love letter written in rain~

Nyra M

The rain falls soft,a quiet grief,

Some puddles gather,dark and brief

Each drop a tear that slips away

Like the memories we can’t replay.

 

And, I love rain because you do,

Each droplet reminds me of you

Through your eyes, its beauty grew

Now, I love the rain, as it loves you.

 

I see your eyes in every puddle,

Mirrored where the rain lies subtle

From the sky, a gentle tear,

I dream of you so pure, so clear.

 

Every day, I hope that it will rain

So I can feel near you again,

A quiet song that fills the sky

A promise whispered as time goes by,

 

The water still yet filled with loss,

Reflects a world that’s turned to moss

In every pool a face long gone

A fleeting love, a fading song.

For in its hum, I hear your voice again

Soft as the rain against my windowpane

And, yes I say that I love the rain because of you

The only thing that doesn’t make me feel blue.

 

As rain falls down, I fill my mind

With all the dreams we left behind,

The rain holds, what time can steal

The echoes of what we cannot feel.

        I like the longing in your poem.
        Some journeys you want to repeat, but time does what it does and only memories remain.
