Then, it rained
Rain soaked
Sodden with time
Muddied under foot
Bereft of comfort.
Such is my love,
Mired in words
Sodden with sounds
Bereft of warmth.
Once love shone
With blue-sky joy
And sun-blazoned hearts
Then, it rained.
Sodden with time
Muddied under foot
Bereft of comfort.
Such is my love,
Mired in words
Sodden with sounds
Bereft of warmth.
Once love shone
With blue-sky joy
And sun-blazoned hearts
Then, it rained.
