Caught in the Storm

I watch and listen,

To the rain drumming around me.

For some reason,

It reminds me of you.

Not anything specific.

Not a particular day in the rain.

I guess it's the calmness,

The rhythm to it.


All of the sudden the memories come back;

The laughing and teasing.

The smiles and admiration.

The perfect simple things I miss.


Then the thunder boomed.

And more memories flood my mind;

The yelling and fighting.

The shoving and punching.

The bruising and aching.


If only I had noticed sooner,

Instead of getting caught in the storm.
