Here you are again
Standing in the rain
Feeling the pain
Like one whose insane
Sobbing softly in the rain
As it hits the window panes
Slowly trying to hide the pain
That covers your body.
You stand motionless,
Oh so senseless
Devoid of the gentleness
That once was part of you
Wondering why he left you again
In the rain
With so much pain
With nothing to hold on to
Save for the sad memories and a broken heart.
Not even the kisses he parted
On your wet lips matter now
As the guilt covers your body, again
And you search for a way out.
But here you are tonight
Standing in your loneliness,
In your nakedness
As the wet clothes stick to your body
Like his sweat did when you cuddled
And make such sweet romance.
Your tears mix with the rain
And cover your face
And the grimace
That shows the pain, again.
The darkness slowly descends around you
While lightning flashes across the sky
And thunder rumbles in the distance
Beyond the darkened mountains.
Yet you stand there, transfixed, unmoved,
Wondering about your plight..
Wondering ....why?
Hoping that he’ll return again
And carry you in from the rain.
Wait not my dear, for he is gone.
Your love he'll no longer miss,
For sadly, the heart of another
He has won
And in her arms he’ll sleep tonight
Beneath the moonlight
As the insects hiss
And the stars twinkle above.
Tonight my dear, to another,
He’ll give his love.
