The clouds broke,
And for a moment,
The sun shined through.

Casting light on the earth.
As they parted,
I thought I saw you.

And I cry, alone.
Cry, because it starts to hurt.
Now left wondering how to replace the pain.
Never to feel again.

Then I hear you.
“This is life...”
“The way it’s meant to be…”

Hold on tight,
Before it slips through,
Before it gets to you.
And when you’re ready,
Let it go.

And now, the rain starts.
The slow rushing of water.
Each drop like tears.
Tap tap tap…
And you’re crying.

For me…

Letting me know that you’re here,
Even if I can’t see you,
I can always smell you in the wind.
Just as sweet as the day you left.
