A Shoulder to Rain On

A bleak argument in the still heat of August Humidity begging and pleading for rain showers to break the silence I know how you love to see the raindrops glide across my cheek Watch them fall and Watch them fall There's something so everlasting About the intensity The stifling heat never subsides though Now our clothes are covered in it Tattooed across our foreheads And strewn across our backs like 'kick me' signs There's something so Everlasting about the intensity Under my skin has become your favorite place down Through my arms and into my fingertips We've become so incapsulated with the noise Rain against boiling concrete the rush of midday traffic The way you reach for my hand In search of safety from the downpour There's something so everlasting about this Intensity The summer asphyxiates me now The rain has been and always will be bittersweet I've learned everything is inevitable
