today
I saw a dance
the dance of the rain
it was magical
electrifying
and
terrifying
she held my heart
in her hand
my blood trickling down
her arm,
joining her veins,
till
she became me
and
I became her
I was now the rain
we had two hearts
I danced to every roar
I danced in every lightning
and we became a catastrophe
we brought apocalypse
we brought life
we brought death
and we also brought:
happiness
in the happiness
my sadness died slowly
with the heart of the rain
and it gave away all the sadness
to people who always laughed and laughed
at me.
and now
I was the rain
we had one heart
I danced to every thunder
I danced in every moment of darkness
and we became, I.
