Standing under the rain


Standing under the rain
I wish to wash away
Fragments of your love
To rinse away your sensual touch

A touch so contagiously passionate
Which left me, wholly inadequate
The medley of colors
In which we showered
Over the years
Has now turned me into a sobbing river

Your professed love
And the calculative shove
I wish to cleanse you
From every pore
Scrub the very essence
Which brew in my veins

The rain has stopped
And I am still standing
Nothing rinsed
Except my exterior

And here am I
Soaked in memories.
