SUSPENSE IN THE RAIN

 

One warm night

Before it rained

My soul felt your body

Then felt the pain

Of cold distant secrets

Floating in the dark

And a subtle flame

That had lost its spark

 

One warm night

Before today

I discovered a season

Again and again

Of a gentle voice in a naked room

Undressing in silence

But sleeping too soon

 

One warm night

And many more nights

Thoughts dressed in feelings

A special delight

The season has started

Before the game

My body is aching

To feel the rain
