Thinking of Rain

Like a rainy day

Not a flood

I am reminded

Your soft touch


I reach out for your hand

It disappears

It was never there

Only a figure of my imagination


The rain comes and goes

Just like the thoughts of you

Sometimes it pours

Sometimes it drizzles


I feel haunted by the thought of you

The white noise echoing from the rain

Hitting the ground outside

Is hitting me on the inside 


I enjoy the sunny days

Not the rainy ones

Because on the rainy ones

I think of you


On stormy nights

My head hurts

My heart aches

These feelings anchor me down


No more juice boxes

And movie nights

They have all gone down the drain

The inside jokes will forever be in vain 


What I miss the most

Is everything about you

Nothing specific

Just you, and your presence


I always use an umbrella

I try to stay in the shade

Or stay in the sunshine

Away from the rain

This is about me trying to avoid thinking about my ex girlfriend. The rain represents anxiety and thoughts of her.
