Another Rainy Night

by Clare   Nov 12, 2005


This isn't really a poem..but its still worth putting on here

the water forms around the soles of my shoes, the bottoms of my pants slosh from the puddles

the rain downpours as i walk away from your house. tonight i learned what you're really like, who you really are

rain dances across my face, disguising the tears which fall from my eyes. the thunder drowns out the noise of everything, but my sobs

lighting strikes and i see the long road i have ahead of me, and i realize how lonely i really am

i hear your voice and turn to see you running toward me, i start to run away, faster and faster

"just let him chase me" i think to myself, "i want nothing to do with him"

you're yelling things at me, but i don't listen, i don't care.

the gravel is wet and i slip. ripping the holes in my jeans bigger and soaking my knees and palms with gouges and blood

i scream as it runs down my wrists and legs, look what you do to me
i think as the stinging takes over my consciousness

suddenly, the footsteps behind me stop, and i turn to see you standing there, facing me, completely still..staring at me through the pouring rain

"baby" you yell just loud enough for me to hear, "I'm sorry" you plead, "i love you, I'd die without you"

i start crying harder and the rain is no longer able to hide it, i walk toward you and you take my in your arms

still sobbing, you wipe my face best you can and take my hand, still bloody from my fall, and we stand there like that, for what seems like forever

tonight, i may've learned what you we're really like, but i also learned who much i really mean to you
