She always told me desperation reveals character. She put me in situations and cracked my shell. What a brilliant woman. My brilliant woman.

Rain pelts my back, and the breeze chills me to the bone, but that doesn't matter. I missed my chance because of my stupid ego. Even the bumbling idiot I call my friend realized before I did.

She said desperation reveals character, but I say loss reveals love.

My train of thought was stopped with the rain, and soon following, my heart.

"You should come inside. You'll catch a cold."
