Pieces of His Soul

He came back to me today,

My lover,

Back as a crystal clear raindrop,

Fresh and renewed,

Packaged specially and sent from heaven,

I was caught in the downpour,

Millions of drops, millions of souls,

I stuck out my tongue,

And caught him,

Glistening and perfect,

I drank in what I had missed,

I am surrounded by him,

A drop of rain,

A blade of grass,

A wisp of cloud,

His soul resides in the warmth,

That curls around me as I sleep,

Where are your lost loved ones?

Look for them,

The suds in the sink,

The gravel on a road,

The breath you take,

As tears roll down your face,

Find them.
