Darling it's raining
such a horrid day to be wet
but I like when your swaying
so dont make it such a fret
I just got my hair done
curled and all
loosen up and have some fun
we could dance and have a ball
No darling I'm freezing
outside is just to cold
well baby I'm reeling
to see you get bold
But my shoes are new
and I need to meet up with Ella
Let me woo
I could even get an umbrella
But...
While we stand here,
Close and wet,
I sense something else is near,
The scent of regret.
I knew I shouldn’t have killed her,
And I’m sorry to say,
You might not concure,
But she’s out of the gray.
She won’t hurt anymore,
She’ll be blissfully glee,
Though it’s hard to ignore,
She’s not completely free.
So, instead of saying sorry,
I’ll take you too,
Under this umbrella,
No one will have a clue....
The rain begins, a sudden pour,
Two strangers meet, and nothing more—
But fate, it seems, has drawn them near,
Beneath an umbrella, hearts unclear.
Their hands brush close, a silent spark,
As raindrops dance in shadows dark.
The world is blurred in sheets of gray,
But in this space, they’re swept away.
No words are spoken, yet they know
That time has slowed, the moments flow, ...
I believe it was fate.
Most likely the raindrops that poured down on us relentlessly.
The street was abandoned, and so was the sky for it was deserted of any colour.
The grey clouds smothering all rising stars, although there were something that shined brightly.
The bright sphere, a night light comforting me from behind the curtains of grey.
I was still, until the sky started waling,
An...
We locked eyes for a moment,
And that moment turned into an eternity.
My past lives flashed before me
And you were in each highlight.
I felt a long-smothered flame erupting in my aorta—
Sparks fly between us—
I flew back to you.
You will find me in every life.
The look you’re giving me—
Is that love
Or loss?
Fire & rain—
Next stop, Silver Springs.
We both said things we didn’t mean.
I slammed...
Below on the green terrain
stands a woman
hoisting an umbrella
of pink
and gold
Humming to a tune in her head
Hmmmm
Hmmmmm
Hmmm
Across the way stands a man
a grey beard
a quickend pace
seemingly in a state of peril
Worry
Worry
Worry
He stands drenched in the skies tears
whilst she steers clear
They walk towar...
The sky was clear as it rained.
It wasn’t going to change anytime soon.
Summer could be like that.
Taylor walked down the street.
He carried his umbrella, yet he was soaked.
Water dripped from his black hair into his eyes as he passed the town library. He imagined the lion statues shaking their manes and trying to catch the drizzle in their gaping jaws.
This made his lips turn in a little smi...
The clip of my heels on the concrete sounds softer than usual
My feet walking on pads of cloth
I feel like skipping but I know it is going to rain soon
I whistle, my lips perked in such a way as to create different notes and patterns and my chapstick lays like a wax coating over a candle
The thunder interrupts me
I reach into my bag and pull out a checkered black and white umbrella
I open it,...
