Downpour

Alone on the terrace

Alone in the rain

Batter me! Splatter me!

Again and again!



Do pelt me and pound me

And shatter me too!

Wash away thoroughly

My feelings for you.



So slash me and bash me

And beat at me hard!

Teach me never again

To let down my guard.

I really enjoyed this poem. It instantly brought back memories of playing in a HUGE storm with my friend Jackie. It was raining so hard it felt like hail. (she's afraid of lightening and everytime it struck she's dive to the groud) You'd have to be there I guess, it was fucking hilarious. hey todays my birthday!
