"It's raining, get an umbrella"

'It's raining!!!'

"Exactly! Take a cap at least"

'It's raining!!!!!! Why would I miss the chance to get drenched?'

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Never have I ever found myself

under an umbrella when the sky went heavy....

You'll find me dancing in rains

storms and downpours

as though it ailed me of all my pains. 

Yet once, in a rare and fleeting moment, 

The umbrella found me, 

And for a heartbeat, I was held.

As close as the dark clouds to the land

Not close 

but close enough to rain.

For once I didn't love the rain 

didn't want to let go of the 

temporary shelter,

temporary comfort,

temporary warmth,

a soft yet heavy breath of the above

and a little wet the land was below. 

But wouldn't eternal rain cause floods?

Even if I was under the umbrella was held,

what if the winds 

tear it apart,

blow it faraway from me?

Back to walking in rain,

melo dancing with the lazy winds,

cold winds hitting my face,

drenching myself in rain (pain's) comfort.
