Till Thunder Breaks


She only leaves me when it’s raining,

to wash away the pain

 

Clouds an ablution to her memories dark,

 drowning a past refrain

 

She returns as the skies are clearing,

to dry inside my warmth

 

Our love in place until thunder breaks

—again to chase the storm

 

(Dreamsleep: May, 2020)
