Rain

Ever since that day
Every time I see the rain
I love it just that much more.

How it cascaded
Suddenly poured down
Upon us, making the seal between our hands something more.

How much “goodbye” was awkward
With the unspoken want of which that we both knew.

How it was sudden,
So beautifully reckless,
And just how much you smiled afterwards.

The pride,
That certain glee...
And the wonderful afterglow that kept me smiling for an hour.



*for you
