Memories of the Rain

Late at night I wake to the sound of thunder

As I look out the window, I feel as if I could see us

Sitting in our old rooms together

I was so afraid back then

But sitting next to you... Changed it all

I remember cuddling next to you on the bed

Lights out and the curtains spread apart

We would watch the rain crash down against the window

You would hold me close every time the lightning flashed

I would hug you back every time the thunder boomed

These thunderstorms brought us so close together

Now I sit down alone on my bed

Watching the lightning flash and the thunder boom

Its just like the old times... but something changed it all

I can no longer feel your warmth beside me

I no longer feel your arms around me as the lightning flashes

I can not hug you anymore when the thunder booms

I feel your emptiness engulfing me

It kills me to know that I will no longer hear your comforting voice

Or feel your warmth engulf me

Instead, I only feel loneliness...

Then I remember what you always told me

"I will always be with you" You would say

Now I feel the tears brimming in my eyes

As the first falls, I feel your sudden touch

I look to see no one beside me

I was still alone... but something changed

I no longer felt lonely or empty

Instead, I feel better

I laugh as I wipe away my tears

"You will always be with me... But... It takes a thunderstorm to relieve me of my emptiness"
