It rains on me.

Acid rain,

Guilt in its very essence.

I feel them looking,

And I wish they’d stop.

Holding their gaze and hear her breath

Whispering again

There must be something I need to do in return.

You understand, I cannot sleep anymore.

I cannot look at the sky in awe,

And wish,

And wait

For a grand sign.

I’m alive.

I am the sign. —
