A Morning's Bright, Dry Rain

Morning comes. Wake up. Wake up to the sound of bright, dry rain falling. Hearts cannot stop. Your memories always develop In photographs I keep.-- can't keep sane. Morning comes. Wake up! wake up! I miss you... Your smell, the way your makeup Stains my pillow every time. (Irrevocable pain Falling, yet hearts cannot stop.) Your mother hates me; "What a trollop you've become! My poor daughter." She disdains. Morning comes, wake up? Wake up? The sun rains like a tear drop Upon a face that contains A falling heart that cannot stop. Every morning, the tragedy continues to gallop within the walls of my Vein, they still remain. Morning comes. Wake up! Then wake up... But fell hearts just cannot stop.
