She gazes outside through the glass, past the swaying trees at the falling rain Rain as cold as the tears on her cheeks She weeps, without a sound not knowing exactly why And yet she cries with every small tear falling slowly, slowly Slowly down her soft face And then he comes He sees her sitting so quietly all alone with no one No one to wipe her tears away He sits beside her She is still looking forward staring at the rain and nothing else He brushes away her falling tears with a gentle hand She takes her gaze off the pouring rain and fixes it upon him He leans in and embraces her in love The rain stops falling The heavens open up and the sun shines through littering their faces with streaks of light She smiles, and again begins to cry But these tears are not of sadness; they are pure and filled with joy. Shoot for the moon. Even if you miss, you'll land among the stars. |

Great work, I liked this one. I think this poem would sound especially good read aloud. Lucidity is the answer to all problems |
