Part of the Rain

When you breathe in
What do you feel?
Ice freezing your heart?
Sun warming your lungs?
Do you feel one with the world,
Or alone outside space?
Are you held tight by love,
Or embraced by the dark?

You can’t be illuminated by light
When you’re in a sanctum of shadow.

When you are part of the rain
The sun hides away
Dark clouds gather
Leaving you only pain.
Tell me, what do you see
In a moonlit reflection?
A face lit by the flames,
Or are clouds in the way?

Judgement looms upon you,
As you fall from blackening skies.

Locked in a dark chest
Of wonder and ruin,
Can you find the way
To hide from the rain?
The wind’s whistling your name,
Thunder’s chasing your shadow,
There’s no escape
When you’re part of the rain.

You’ve broken into pieces,
My single falling rain-drop.
