Falling quickly.
I long to watch
raindrops falling,
raining down from
a dark luminous
cloud,
reminding
me of myself and
the darkness
around me,
flooding
the ground below
with tears of
sadness.
Wondering
when will this storm end,
I'm falling quickly.
Falling slowly.
I crave to see the
end of the storm,
when the rain
slows and
calmly
drips down the
window pane, as if
remorseful
for all the destruction
it left.
Reminding
me of myself, and
knowing
the world
must slow down
eventually.
I'm falling slowly.
The falling has stopped.
I wish to observe the
calm
after the storm,
when all that is left
of the rain is a
soft dew on the
newly bloomed
flowers.
The darkness is over
and the calm has come.
I wish to say
that like the rain,
I too have stopped falling.
