Rain

We walk together,

in this rain,

hand held in hand,

with smiles of joy;

exchanging glances,

that maintain,

this unity will not be cloyed.

So calm we feel,

so full of grace;

but our embrace,

is soon replaced,

by mournful grief,

brought upon,

so suddenly,

by streaks of light,

a truly blinding,

magnificent sight,

of lighting that

with curious aim,

strikes my head,

and as it splats,

I fall in shivers,

beneath your feet,

soon to part,

into eternal sleep,

while sweetest lover,

You kick my corpse,

into the gutter,

and walk on by

in silence.
