(g)rain setting

In the rain, there comes a point
Where once all that was clearly seen
A picture of perfect clarity
Where all the colors blend and fade
The lines, the curves, so barely there
That I don't know what I do see
That I'm not sure of what I did

Time is a painter of memories
Untiring and perpetually unfinished
The harder it rains, the longer I go
Without that original image, I
Am left with beauty in ambiguity
Where good and evil have come together
Where I am left with the aftermath
Of here and now, of you and me

A storm has come between us two
But somehow, I can see you there
Drenched in rain, but still you are
The someone I once knew; and though
I can't say, when the sun returns
How clear you really are to me
There's yet within you that perfection
So untouchable in my mind
