The Rain’s Requiem

​I want to dance in the rain,

Pinned against you,

Until our pulses sync into one frantic rhythm.

Hands locked around your neck,

Savoring the salt of your skin,

Lost in the hollow of your eyes

As I draw you closer, tethered by your waist.

Your enchanting smile,

Those soft, forbidden lips,

Launch me into the static air—

I am soaring, breathless, light as a ghost.

​But I want to dance in the rain again,

Folding my wings against the storm,

Savoring every iron-heavy drop.

I stare into the black throat of the clouds,

Hungering for the earth,

For the silence of being buried

Beneath the weight of the world.

​I will dance until the rain tastes of ruin,

Until my blood runs thin and bright as wine,

A final offering, a quiet surrender,

Reaching up to kiss the cold, unyielding sky.
