"everything extraneous has burned away
this is how burning feels in the fall
of the final year not like leaves in a blue
October but as if the skin were a paper lantern
full of trapped moths beating their fired wings..." -Paul Monette


You're written in the rain

written in the rain

written into the way

every droplet falls

 

Regardless of the day

or the time that's passed away

driving me insane

I hear you call,

 

Me your love.

but it's only the rain playing with my heart

tearing me apart

in waves of drip, drop...

 

Written in the rain

you're written in the rain

written into the way

every drip drop, drip drop falls

 

maybe someday

someday not too far away

i'll really be okay

and not hear you call

 

Me your love.

cuz it's only the rain 

playing with my heart

tearing me apart

in waves 

 

(of drip drop)

 

this, rain

this, rain

this

rain
