Raindrops

Simple thoughts drip drop into the vast ocean of my heart, defining who you are to me— the reasons I should keep you happily by my side, always. One quality at a time, another facet of love, dripping into the pool of my heartfelt feelings for you. It condenses in my mind becoming part of the busy cloud, stirring continuously with exciting memories, affirming experiences. I try to hold it together with my mind, but inevitably it drips, drops, into my heart and adds to the vast ocean— the purest collection of my emotions. Then there are those moments pouring in showers hour by hour, an overwhelming flood reminding me why you're the one to whom I cling. I want to give you everything. So please, let your love keep raining into my heart as you always do. In turn, I'll reserve my heart for you. Chanté Walker Thursday December 5, 2024
