  • 37 - Raindrops

    Like raindrops joining on a speeding windshield,

    we, together, can become a shooting jewel.

    Consume this entity that

    more than shares—contains

    only your hopes.

    Give the breath before my face a voice.

    Give the sight behind my skull a strength.

    Take this incapacity to make my own,

    what you believe this to be,

    and create.

    For once, to escape falling,

    take me and we will streak

    across the cool glass and

    just for a flash of a moment,

    be more

    than the inevitable intermediary between sky and sea.

  • I really like this. It's very well written and you use very vivid imagery.

  • I love the flow, and the wording is very unique. "Give the sight behind my skull a strength" - very powerful. "..Can become a shooting jewel" - some most original imagery. And there is a lot of depth in the way you sign off the piece. It's intimate and full of reverberation.

  • This was very enjoyable to read. Thank you for sharing.
