Fondness for Rain

 I'd rather be washed by the rain

Than be drowned by the river

In the melody of water I am lost

Still I believe in rainbows

That awaits when the sky clears up

So I wait for the warmth of the sun

And I wait

And I wait

Longingly

While I get drenched

In my fondness for rain.

The Blind

The blind leading the blind

Where I am blind

An arrogant wench

Who refused to be led

So darkness takes me

And darkness led me.

Expectations

I said there was none when you asked
 I didn't want you to break a promise - if you were to say in it your words.
 So now I smile because you were true
 To me not having expectations
 When there's nothing to expect
 My tears were just sad but not out of disappointment
 You betrayed no expectations
 I just betrayed myself because I expected
 Despite saying I wouldn't.

Fleeting Moments

Waves of Light

I am a weak person

If someone offers me happiness

I will take their hand

However short lived and fleeting

That at the end of it

I am left pining

Inside this never ending whirlpool.

Suppressed

These feelings I can't express
When you talk
When you breathe
When you move my heart
All within me blooms
Like the flowers I've never come to love
Confidently unleashing their charm
I can't help but smile
I want to pluck you out for my amusement
To express the gratitude I have inside
But I've never cared for flowers
So I'm afraid you will wilt
Oh I am so very afraid
So I will leave you with a kiss.

Refresher Blues

Raindrops

Melodic strings

Are these my thoughts

Or is my body reacting

To this day it doesn't end

But it gets better

And my body persevere.

Nostalgia

.

The sound of crushed dry leaves

A childhood of adventures

A long hike

A packed lunch

How I wish it never ends

Period.
