⌞ Dripple, Dripple⌝

Dripple, Dripple
The rain begins,
Whispers of storm,
And all night, it will fall.

Dripple, Dripple
You sit in your room,
Eyes lost in the glossy half-moon,
A quiet wish, too far away,
Too small to hold, too distant to stay.

Dripple, Dripple
Under your roof, you remain,
And though they think you're safe,
The flood rises, unseen—
A flood of words, a flood of pain.

Dripple, Dripple
It comes on stronger,
The waters climb,
Now halfway up the bed,
Drenched in thoughts you never said.

Dripple, Dripple
You try to stop it, but can't,
The rain pours faster,
Soaked with memories you can't escape,
It drowns your chest, your breath, your shape.

...Drip... Drip
When the storm finally stills,
You shiver in the quiet,
Your body cold,
You find the closet,
A dark space to hide—
A place where warmth is far, but safe inside.

...Drip...
Through the window, you see it,
The big hands wiping away
The tears you can't seem to shake,
Shaking as violently as you.




Seems like it's time for bed


When the tears finally stop,

Big hands coming to dry them

wiping the eyes that you call windows

And you, too, find stillness.

Huddled deep, in the no-thoughts space—

Safe, for now,

In the closet of your mind.

You sweet, forgotten inner child
