sheet lightning and raspberry tea
and rain
just like any other day or night
only it’s not
because there you are again
holding the raspberry tea
fending off the rain
with an umbrella in hand
here’s my promise
i’ll be quiet for once
go to sleep inside
your face was the sky
did lightning gash it
or merely illumine?
no matter
i’ve finished being a thunderclap
landing where i’m not wanted
ancora imparo
always
be the softest murmur
on the breeze
soothing
like sheet lightning and raspberry tea
and rain
after all
days are somehow the same
