Why Chase the Rain?

April 25, 2013
Why chase the rain, he asked?
 
Because the rain tagged me
 
it is only fair.
 
The winner is up to the air,
 
It’s the only divider from her and me
 
For if air was to sound it would not decide
 
It would have faith inside,
 
For hope that I would one day catch the rain
 
And tear her cotton skin till her truth poured down
 
As a colorful orchestra of sounds
 
Some whisper,
 
Some bang!
 
As loud as they came!
 
None of which stops me from chasing her
 
But I know she feels for me
 
She takes pictures, and I’ve seen
 
She thinks she’s sneaky but it seems
 
That her tip toes are traveling schemes
 
She is plotting,
 
But I don’t care!
 
I want her to find me
 
So I can declare,
 
My love for her with no one I share
 
Would you like to kiss me?
 
She breathed,
 
Into my soft ear seed
 
Which grew dyes of warmth I need
 
But before our faces could meet
 
She stops to say hold your feet
 
You must catch me before it's too soon
 
Where the clouds divorce and borne the moon
 
And the light begs to consume!
 
Our love for each other in this black lagoon,
 
Where I must wait again for her to reappear,
 
But I fear not,
 
Because this is my chase to seize,
 
Within my reach she seeks to plead
 
Catch me before the moon bleeds
 
I got you, I announced
 
You're finally it,
 
She stops her tears
 
And kisses me,
 
As the world is paused
 
And I’m drowned in pleasure
 
I realize I see no other that fate would fit;
 
But before I could smile and flea
 
She whispers tag, you're it
