Tears

Dear rain, Ever so appalling.

It’s as if the sky is crying.

It must be tears of sadness.

Let me in the shades

Of dull and grey.

Let it flow, let it flow.

Thunderous clap.

I shudder.

Keep me safe,

Hidden under.
Dear rain,

Ever so beautiful.

I crave my blankets,

Ever so soft, wonderful,

It must be tears of joy.

Let me dance and twirl

And leave me in your embrace.

Your tears of joy.
