A Drop of Love

When my stagnant time stretched like a vast desert,
The clouds forgot how to descend and gift rain.
You showered a cool drop into my lonely summer days;
a single droplet from you made my existence heaven.

When life seemed to be ending—though the end was still far—
I stood quiet and immobile beneath the vast sky
and blamed the distant stars for shining so far away.
You brought a cool wind to a parched, heavy day.
