Lingering in the Rain

my muse my unspoken words our antithetical stories your charm your goodbye before the dawn i traced the lines of our fate never aligned the red string woven around which seems too weak your presence lingers around me like a shadow rain poured down before before we became alive before I let it out before I could hold on before you screamed it out I watched you being washed away from my shore i watch the rain blurring the edges of my side of the world As i wait for it to cleanse my wounds As i wait for it to blur my memory As i wait to let go Written with Deepali
