Annie Peake Poet I do not know?

I'M So Far Behind

Ride the wave
take the storm
Not, what was it you said?
Dance in the rain?
How am I supposed to do that?
images of me climbing back through the window,
the pouring from the clouds soaked through my hair.
take a picture.
i like your smile.
your grin, i love you,
before 'dancing', as you called it.
i just laughed.
But no, I can't dance in this rain.
The clouds pleading their sorrows
Not their song.
    you're gone,
    in all but body.
I see you everywhere I turn.
  So I admit,
I'm using an umbrella for this one.

Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life."
