A Rainy Day
Gentle
Emptiness
Blows in cool
Taste of peppermint
On the silent tongue
Inner voice hums
Slick grey road
Under wet grey sky
Dark clouds swell
Drown out the sun
Behind a growing bruise
Unseen thunder
Unheard lightning
Below life swims
Exhaling ghosts
Leaden eyes under
Everything is falling
Brought down
Drained
Away
To be drank again
On another rainy day
