Listen to the Rain

Chapter 2: October

¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥

I can't run anymore

I fall before you

Here I am

I have nothing left

Though I've tried to forget

You're all that I am

Take me home

I'm through fighting it

It was raining. Again. That was typical. it always rained when he thought of her, today it was particularly hard not to think of her. It was three years to the day that he had met her. Why he held onto such dates was beyond him, but he did and now he was thinking of her and it was raining. Typical.

Broken

Lifeless

I give up

You're my only strength

Without you

I can't go on

Anymore

Ever again

Not for the first time he thought about going to get her. 'No doubt that would end well,' he thought sarcastically. He had done that before, it had ended in a very hard rejection and heart break. Of course, that was mostly his fault, showing up and asking her to leave with him. She was never one for spontaneity and he was never good at remembering that.

My only hope (All the times I've tried)

My only peace (To walk away from you)

My only joy

My only strength (I fall into your abounding grace)

My only power

My only life (And love is where I am)

My only love

He thought sadly of where he could be if he had listened to her and if he hadn't left. He would probably still be with her. Two years... That would have been the longest relationship he had ever maintained. Of course he didn't maintain it. It fell apart before even a year...

I can't run anymore

I give myself to you

I'm sorry, I'm sorry

In all my bitterness I ignored

All that's real and true

All I need is you

When night falls on me

I'll not close my eyes

I'm too alive and you're too strong

I can't lie anymore

I fall down before you

I'm sorry, I'm sorry

Without thinking he stood up and grabbed his jacket. he got into his car and drove aimlessly, ofcourse as fate had it he ended up there... There with her. he contemplated just driving away but ended up getting out of the car. He walked down a stone path and saw a figure looking at him. Lightning cracked behind him and he could make out the persons features... It was her. That was all it took for him to leave. He was gone before the light disappeared.

My only hope (All the times I've tried)

My only peace (To walk away from you)

My only joy

My only strength (I fall into your abounding grace)

My only power

My only life (And love is where I am)

My only love

Constantly ignoring

The pain consuming me

But this time it's cut too deep

I'll never stray again

It was pointless to do anything, yet he hoped. He didn't know why, but he did. The only thing that kept him living was the thought that one day, one day she might be his again, and this time he wouldn't screw it up. Once he had her, if he had her, he wouldn't let her go until he was sure it was final.

My only hope (All the times I've tried)

My only peace (To walk away from you)

My only joy

My only strength (I fall into your abounding grace)

My only power

My only life (And love is where I am)

My only love

My only hope (All the times I've tried)

My only peace (To walk away from you)

My only joy

My only strength(I fall into your abounding grace)

My only power

My only life (And love is where I am)

As he sat in his car, the rain patering overhead. He stopped adn listened, really listened to what it sounded like. To him, and just him, it sounded as though it said 'Come back...' Huh.

My only love
