Affinity for the Rain

Soft drops fell with the wind.
I watched the rain fall diagonally from the sky,
And for a moment,
I let it hit my face.
And oh, I loved the feeling!
I always liked the rain even as a young girl.
It just seemed romantic to me.

I closed my eyes
And felt a gentle breeze wafting my hair.
It gave me a sweet touch of serenity.
The sprinkle was mild, it made me purified.
Would I succumb to this kind of feeling?
Everything seemed nice,
Close to perfect..
A fleeting glimpse of eternity.
But slowly, I sank deep in a reverie.
Memories of you came rushing in my mind..
Memories that would be forever kept.

I then noticed a tear fell from my eyes.
Like the rain, it showered down my face.
Why?
Because I was here and you were there.
A pang of gloom enshrouds me
For I need you here with me.
I’m just glad the rain muffled the cries I have inside.

I whispered to the wind,
Wishing it would reach you.
But you seemed so far,
I couldn’t get near you.
I wish I could just be like the rain…
Gently kissing your eyes and washing away the tears…
Vitalizing your heart and curing the sorrow inside.
And like the rain,

I’d be forever falling for you. ♥
