The Morbid Rain

When rain falls at evening’s brink,
And evening gathers black,
Something stirs for you in me
It settles solemnly on my chest
A weight that will not be removed. 

When rain begins at morning’s grey,
And dawn is dim and thin,
That same small stirring wakes again,
It rises like a wandering breath
And will not leave me bare.
