I wished I could stop the rain

Info

You planted a flower in my dying garden
You relived the arts that had given up its life
You showed me the rainbow
When my eyes were fixed to the clouded sky

You lied with me on the ground
while watching the stars collide
I curled up into your arms
having comfort with your warmth

But I walked up one day,
you were no longer at my side
I gazed upon you from hills to swamp
and to the places where you would possibly be taking a nap

But I saw you on a deserted road taking a step away

I asked why,

"My rain won't stop from pouring. I need someone who could offer me a home, so I could rest"

"But I brought you an umbrella", I said

By then, in your silence I knew we were just temporary

I forgot to see than I'm not dealing with just a rain
I haven't been prepared for a storm to come

Honey, I'm sorry

Neither I, has no home
and I thought it was you but I was wrong
