Poetry #3: you were too good
your impact on me was the rain on the vast desert
before i was dead, dry
lacked life, love
and in enters the beloved storm
pouring down love, soothing the cracked dirt
transforming the landscape to barely recognizable
the warm waters attracted a variety of creatires
from the loving lizard to the happy horntail
in love with the storm and her showers, we rejoiced
as all clouds do, you drifted onwards
moving from the desert
leaving us to wither and die of dehydration
we often wished for the sweet waters to return
but rain is rare, rain is rare
and people like you are rare
my creatures died of thirst
and i was left the dead, dry desert
