In The Rain

Posted on April 17, 2012 By rayawambui No Comments on In The Rain

To breathe the air,

You push out of your way when you move,

deepest pleasure.

The winds inside,

A Storm.

To see your eyes happy

indescribable treasure,

If only my own eyes could withstand

whats rong.

To live thinking we have

‘happy ever after’

A fantasy too heavy,

To ever hold smiles or laughter.

I had my finger in the dike for so long,

That my song has been sung

and my dizzy head’s swum.

Now I’m empty,

but for beautifull,

and painfull memories

A vesle in which,

almost all hope is gone.

I’ll just wait for the day,

when waking up doesn’t feel like disaster,

Cos beside me I can’t feel your warmth.

Eight months down the line,

That day’s yet to come.

But my hope, what little’s left,

is the light,

its my charm.
