Rain & Teardrops

When you take a longer route home

By at least 30 mins

When you walk in the rain

Headphones at maximum volume

Goosebumps and tears and sadness

And that feeling in your throat again

You can’t quite swallow it

The lump teasing your emotions

Pulling on your watery eyes

Whispering

Seducing

Let it go

Cry

It’s okay

There’s no one here apart from you

And your music

When you’re in the shower

And you can sob for a good 15 minutes cause no one can hear it

Or when you just cry silently…

Cause silently crying is the worst one

It’s the most painful

Heart shattering

And you’re just frozen

Staring at a wall

With wet cheeks

Pouting lips

And sore eyes…
