"Sharing the Rain"

I love the rain.

Listening as I walk underneath a small umbrella

Breathing in the cool air

Trickles of water dripping off the metal frame.

I adore the heavy, pouring rain

None of that half-assed shit

Gripping the handle tightly

I round the corner

Stepping carefully over large puddles of water

The cloudy gray sky is my only friend in this moment.

I am otherwise alone.

But then, I see you

Standing there smiling,

Your hand outstretched

I reach out, grabbing your hand,

And tug you along.

Fingers intertwined

Hands between us

Bodies snuggled close together

Walking as one.

I used to love being alone in the rain.

I didn't want to share the moment with anyone else.

But our talking,

Laughing,

Smiling

It changed all that.

I still love the rain.

But now I love being in the rain with you.

A/N - What do you think? Too cheesy? Let me know! This poem was inspired by a walk I recently had with my new boyfriend (eeeeee). Excitement. :)
