Rain Language

Your sheets had broken free from the corners
I don't mind a mess if it isn't mine
Through the window pane
A rain starts
Pouring through the orange streetlights
That night, I dreamt of dad and the atom bomb
When I woke up, it was still dark outside
I heard you talk in your sleep
And prayed the storm might keep

Rain language
This time I think it might
Stay here with me awhile

For now, it feels so nice to come over
Spend the night two or three times a week
Waking each morning
To showers and dream meanings
But there is a rule in this world
That nothing stays
These sudden joys of our love
Will fade
As the days give way

Rain language
This time I think it might
Stay here with me awhile

If anything in this world
Could ever stay
I'd hope for us as we are
Today
The ancient cycle of rain
Through your window pane
Everything lost is returned someday
