I sit here alone on this windowsill, <br />Watching the raindrops fall <br />And doing its tap dance <br />Like endless tears of sky above. <br />Heaven has let go of everything. <br />I know you’re all asking <br />“Why can’t you do the same – <br /> Just let go and start new? ” <br /> <br />You will be happy <br />To see me smiling like before <br />Forgetting everything <br />That is killing me <br />Or should I just run away <br />But will you ever know <br />Or rather would want to know <br />My pain and my silent tears? <br />I am not some gallant hero; <br />I cannot fly, nor reach so high <br />I am on the plain ground, <br />and everyone’s in the sky. <br /> <br />May be you should go away, <br />Leaving me on the floor <br />Perhaps I’ll stop crying <br />If you just shut that last door. <br />You won’t know I’m lonely <br />And reaching for you, <br />When you walk away <br />Without another glance<br /><br />Deepa Thomas<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/thoughts-on-a-rainy-day/
