Listening to the Rain


I sit listening to the rain heartache that’s hard to see droplets roll down the glass like pieces inside of me drop, drop, drip no particular pattern, no true given pace; my one true wanting wishing to see your face drop, drip, drop racing to the windowpane breaking as they slide down the distance tearing us apart slowly, steadily, without a sound drip, drop, drop I sit listening to the rain heartache that’s hard to see droplets reach their destination wondering if you’re missing me

This poem is lovely. The onomatopoeic droplets combined with the last line really spoke to the heartache intended to be expressed. Great work. Keep writing :)
