Still Rain

falling again
thousands of pieces of sky
shattered and drifting
away on the wind
taste my tears
taste my rain

delicacy tracing features
of bright horizons long forgotten
whisper-light kisses moving
along this rose line
close my eyes
forever

slide across the silk
paved with stone and sapphire
close my eyes
we're falling again
draw closed the curtain
of my rain.
