When It Rains… A Poem
Does the weather change to fit my mood, or my mood the weather? When I cry, it pours, and when I think of the distance between us, the winds gust. I'm drawn to the sea as thunder clouds gather. The sound of ocean waves slamming against the shoreline reminds me of rain, and I wonder— If I dream up a malestrom, how long could I ride the current to get to you, and when you find me prostrate in the sand and flip me over, will the sun finally shine?
