[rain In Karachi]

It's raining in karachi /again/
The sky was the darkest shade in the morning /it should have been bright at that hour /
But there was darkness all around / peaceful darkness,
As if the sky was telling me that it's okay
To be full of dark but still be okay with it
It's 10 am and suddenly my body is tired
Like holding onto to a rope for so long
/it starts weighing you down/ exhausted/
I don't feel like getting drenched in the
rain anymore /too much hassle /
Looking out at the sky while it's raining / not much hassle /
So instead I go to sleep
/knowing it's raining outside / knowing that sky is weeping instead of me,
/ knowing that when I wake up / everything will be drowning /
         /karachi
          /my heart,
       But it's raining in Karachi / silencing out all the heartbreaks / showing it's own tears /
                    it's beautiful.
