Rain
--
Blame Cirque Du Soleil.
I love their music, and I'm listening to it
And it inspires good poetry!
Grah!

The earth is quiet around me
My body is lifeless on the wet pavement
All I can hear is the rain falling from the sky
Tap...Tap...Tap...
It hits my body
It hits the ground
The noise of water sooths me
As I feel my body drown
I hear a quiet voice
He whispers that it's all okay.
'You'll stop hearing the rain soon King
You'll be in my arms
It will be silent
Silent.'
My breathing quiets down
My eyes dull and lifeless
A small smile gracing my lips.
He never lied, never once.
I did everything he said, never once was he mad
Kill all your friends
Kill them all dead
I ddi as he said,
'Lay down in the rain
Give up on your life
For soon you'll be in my arms
And I'll hold you tight.'
I can already feel it
My head on his shoulder
I think I might start crying
It's hard to realize that you're not being saved
But you're actually dying.
My mind is fuzzy
My body is numb
But I can still feel blood all around me
It's warm
It's rushing from head to thumb
'You aren't dying king
You're saving yourself
We'll be together soon
The rain will stop falling
You'll be happy
You'll be with
me
And it will be silent
Silent.'
He never lied to me
So here I lay
My eyes watch the rain slowly falling
The sounds calm me down
I slowly accept that this is what I've chosen
Tap...tap...tap...
The water sinks in
The last words I hear are
'Everything is going to be alright.'
