![]() For Practice [Rain]A Poem by Emunah June.![]() Another freeblock write yey![]() It started raining today
And normally, I hate the rain
It usually made me remember how lonely I was
But then I remembered how much you liked it
And how you hope it’ll be sewn into your memories
And how, I hoped, that I’d be that memory
And despite the cold
I pulled my hoodie down
(stripping me of my mau5hood! What a shame!)
And looked right in the sky
Hoping for a glance of the One whom I praise
To ask “This rain
The rain that will wash both our pasts away
And create a new step forward towards something I’ve secretly dreamed of?
Or a rain that one day
Will remind me of another hope lost
A rain that will only further drown me in the toxic sorrows
I swam in for so long?”
Either way
That rain cleansed my beating heart
And as my breath slowed and my eyes closed
(I’ll admit, I stood on my tippy toes for practice…)
My phone vibrated in my pocket
