Between the Raindrops

The wind whispers of torment
Underneath the painted sky.
I dance between the raindrops
So no one can see me cry.

Raindrops tap rhythms
That etch patterns on my heart.
The rain masquerades my tears
When hiding my pain becomes an art.

Salt-water sweet caress –
I shiver in the rain’s embrace.
As I tango with the wind
I force a smile upon my face.

Dancing in the rain alone,
I can only think of you.
My heart shattered when you left,
But this rain’s long overdue.

Tears stream down my face,
Reflecting the painted sky.
I dance between the raindrops
So no one can see me cry.
