Evening Rains
Evening Rains
---------------------------------
Shall we dance to the song of the rain,
To this rhythm of water and gravity?
To the sonnet of every drop lain
For such an orchestrated cacophony
Shall we dance to the song of the rain?
Drench me in this waltzing revelry of you.
A step, a turn, around and let’s feign
That time may stop to make our “forever” true.
(A curtsy to the night)
The moon is my shackle,
The stars are the chains.
The sky is my prison,
The clouds are the rails.
Your eyes, the manacles.
A glance locks me here.
Captive of delusion,
Entrapped by your stare.
Let it all pour
Shall we dance like the night and the day,
Like seconds drizzling in and out of tune?
Trickling minutes on a thousand panes,
Of starlit showers and hours that went too soon
I curtsy to the night.
Let it all pour
And wash us away in these evening rains
