Rain

As the rain

soothes

It washes

away

the cerebral

and the

inconsequential

and even

less

the rain doesn’t

listen

he just goes

on

as

if it heals

the scab

still festers underneath

and the rain is soft

tonight

and understanding

the rain soothes

and the rain knows

but the rain doesn’t know

if her audience is ready

for that

if we can

we will get rid of

the past pain

so that we can move on

if she is the locus

shift of control

to

myself
