Short Stories

In the Rain

All you'll hear
Are her tears
As they hit the pavement
In the rain

All you'll see
Is her crying face
As she walks alone
In the rain

All you'll feel
Is the cold drops
As she walks along
In the rain

All you'll smell
Is the dew in the grass
As she finds her home
In the rain

All you'll remember
Is the chill
As you watched her disappear
In the rain

All that's left
Is you and me
Standing in the street
In the rain

All we'll see
Is a broken building
Burned to the ground
Being put out
In the rain

All that's done
Has been done
For many years now
And it will continue
In the rain

Her spirit won't rest
She'll always be walking
Always be crying
As she approaches her old home
In the rain
