everytime
it rains
you come unbidden
into my mind.

---

raindrops
falling againt the
window pane (pain?)
remind me
of your fingers
travelling down my arms,
causing me to melt
and turn into a puddle
on the floor.

---

(oh how i'd come apart for you)

---

drenched
every inch.
soaked
in your love.

---

(then)
a gentle shower
causing me to burst out in flowers.
or
lulling me to a merciful sleep.

---

(now)
a thunderstorm
destroying everything I was.
(useless for anyone after)

---

how can
the thing that nourishes
loves
makes you feel alive
also possess the power
to wreak so much havoc.

---

(then)
i let my head fall back
and let the drops caress
my face.

---

(now)
they merely hide
my tears.

---

(i tell myself)
("you shouldn't have happened" x infinity)
(doesn't change a thing)

---

but now i know
what it's like
(and how)
to both,
love
and hate
the same thing
so passionately.

---

(it's quite easy)

---

(you allow it to break you)
