A/N: Okay, okay. You asked for more poems like Tragedy Sells, so here you are. This one is a tad soppier, though. I was in a mood. Well, read and tell me what you think. (btw, I wrote this poem with one of my favorite fanfic slash couples in mind... a cookie if you guess right)
***
it's raining outside
but you have to stay in
otherwise you might catch cold
so just sit by your window
and listen to the rainfall
music for your eyes, you told me once
but even more harmonious on your other senses
today the sky is dark
a contradiction to your swirling grey eyes
but i like it when the insipid sky
plays memory match with your pale perception
at the moment, the rain isn't just drizzling
toss it down
the sky has opened up
and showered you with heartache
as if you didn't have my share already
my poor beauty
but the rain is gentle, you say
it is the sun who is never kind
your words know only truth
for i am summer
and you, winter
we are polar opposites, they told us
and you know what they taught us in school
opposites attract
shit, were they right
but, oh
we're a jigsaw puzzle
and they know that we fit like no one else could
without one piece, we're incomplete
and you're the only other piece that finishes the picture
but i know you love the rain
and the puddles miss you, dear
so, when i'm not looking
throw open the window
and escape into the heart of the storm
but leave your rubber boots by the door
and we'll be waiting for you when you return
