Raindrops

Grey Eye Glances

the wind is softy blowing

the posters on my far wall

I'd quickly go close my window

as if I had someplace to go

the echoes are faintly calling

the distinctive voice of fall

we'll talk til dawn about dreams

maybe about what this night means

the orchestra of the night

must only play for us this time

how our faces will seem too clean

through the curtain a moonbeam stream

lighting our candles, let the warm stread inside

as a suble change within yourself

I turn and you are no longer here

just a piece of paper

reading "when the raindrops fall"



lost in confusion,

the stars would hear my subtle cry

words are met somewhere within this night

seeing things nowhere within sight

the things that would be the same

the child inside my starts to cry

and a circling question fills my mind

with answer I've never been taught

a whisper in to my pillow

"when do raindrops fall?"



why does everything seem to change?

the world around me slowly sighs

memories of aspiring words

none too common and none too absurd

as your shadow still sits in my chair

I think about how far we've come

and I open my window again

my fright is taken from my soul

as I can hear the raindrops fall
