rain

my rain,

my lovely rain.


i have stood here for

all time and my

legs have never faltered.


my blood is cold and warm,

and i peak my head out of the window

when the moon is full,

and tell her about the things

about the people i keep in the centre of my chest

and the in the curve of my hips.


i walk in the rain,

and some part of me wants

my hair to get wet.


my lovely rain,

i listen to songs

about flowers in winter.


november i miss

you,

and my lungs ache sometimes.


i hold in my back,

in my very last

intercostal spaces,

my favourite people

and my favourite

breaths and

my favourite moments.


my back hurts

and the pain lulls me to sleep

to the overture of rain.
