I'm going to visit relatives tomorrow (which is actually not a chore since most of them are fun to hang with) and I don't know if I'll be updating for the rest of the weekend, so here's two poems to make up for it:
A Girl in the Rain
The rain is falling again
And once more she is outside
As though it beckoned her
Like a long-lost friend
But who she is, who she was
Will remain locked away
For she hides in the unknown
Willing to be forgotten
Her tongue lies still
Because she doesn't know the words
To explain the riddle
Hidden in her eyes
And why her heart has eclipsed
Closing itself off
To all who would want a glimpse
On the outside she seems so empty
But what you cannot see
Is that she is burning inside
Trying to keep the memories from being revived
And the flames will never die
For she can't remember how to cry
So as the years flow by
She'll continue being outside
As the rain falls gently down.
A Girl in the Rain II:
A Companion
Once again she is outside
For the rain is falling
But this time someone is there
Someone is with her in the rain
His eyes are full of questions
That only she can give the answer to
But she cannot tell
What he wants to know
For her tongue remains locked
And her mind remains closed
Though she tries to deny it
Deep within her heart
Feelings are stirring
She knows not what it means
But when he tries to reach out to her again
She reaches out as well
And tears are seen for the first time
On her pale cheeks
As buried memories
Rise to the surface
With a whisper and murmur
She finds the words to say
And her tongue discovers motion
As she explains what he wants to know
A sigh, a brush of lips
And the pain is cleansed away
For he would always be with her
Whenever the rain fell gently down.
