Fresh Water Tears

Laying here pondering,
wondering how the sound
Of droplets hitting against
My slanted roof put my mind
At  such ease. Craving for something
To compliment the pitter-patter
Of the tiny impacts of water.

No one now pays attention
To the smell of precipitation 
The wonderful presence of
Tears brought to life by a
Light fluff in the sky
In comparison to the rich never-
Ending atmosphere

How could a long sheet of double
Sided comfort provide a sense
Of love in a cold room,
It provides almost as much
Consolation that 
fresh water tears do.

Praying for a jolting 
Strike of light and reverberation
Throughout my living system
In order to fulfill all of the
Left over exhilaration from
The night I had spent
Taking in the elation from
The rain.
