it is raining my loveA Poem by Matome Masipathe writings under a fading candleit is raining outside; Such an odd way to start words to tell someone but there was no
place to begin, And like the very drops outside, I do not know how to pour my words on you, so your emotions do
not fall and flow all Over the depth of your heart. Mixed, the way the waters do with the ground, turning moist then
into mud How can i say them to you so that after each single one, i evoke
some colorful entity The way clouds do rainbows after the wetness is everywhere; And the air is silent with blue skies at the edge. I paused after thoughts and thoughts trying to paint this for
you, That on that day when you held me in your arms happy And in love And all the other things you related to me in the passion. There was sex in the air but love was there first and would
remain infinitely. I confessed and you replied with tears.
Looking at the touch of one droplet on my coat, i remembered
that day When we were free from troubles and closer than magnetic fields. The distance has held you and i at bay since then and i worry
everyday. About when i will get to see your smile and your charm again My words have washed up with the purpose of all i was trying to
say in all my lonely dismay.
It is raining outside, And i am reminiscing about the tears that fell down your cheeks
when you asked me to stay Just one more day in bed. The words gave me courage to weather the burdens of my heart I never wanted to leave you, though i had to I took a risk and for another happy and joyful experience i
remained. Morning came still; And still i had to go away. I swore to come back to you, this time for good.
So that days like these do not bother me anymore; Sundays and Mondays do not symbolize sad goodbyes. Only a chance for me to be late for work. Oh how i wish and long for a day like today Looking outside, whispering "its raining outside my
love"
