So I Cry

As the rain falls upon my head

I’m reminded of you.

I can see your face

I can smell your hair.

There’s nothing I can do about it and so I cry.

 

I can’t move

Letting the rain hide my tears.

Why did you leave?

Why did you go?

I know I can never have you back and so I cry.

 

The rain is so cold

But it doesn’t help to numb the pain.

I stand here soak and wet

The rain stays, it won’t go away.

You loved the rain, and so I cry.

 

Another year has gone by.

I return back to this place.

I lay down your flowers

I kiss your headstone and turn to leave.

“I miss you my love,” and so I cry.
