2007-2009 Poems I just wish it would rain tonight.
The same kind of rain in Nueva Ecija...
The one that smells like rice fields,
The one with the calming 'whoosh'
As it pours down everything
Without holding back.
A heavy pouring down
That will make me shout funny things
And it will just drown every uttered word.
When somebody opens the door,
The 'pitter-patter' will even get louder.
Which will make me want to curl
Like a ball on the bed, under the blanket
With the television turned on.
In which I will constantly peep-out
After every long commercial,
To watch my favorite re-runs...
A rain that soothes…
The bruises of today's battles
And will make me forget about tomorrow.
You see, the stars are bright
And every road is touched by the moonlight.
I wish it would rain tonight…
But not here inside,
It’s raining in my room tonight.
