The Rain

The rain falls slowly
Pitter patter, pitter patter

I hear you whisper my name
Your eyes captivate me in a sea of lust 
I can feel your soft touch against my skin
It warms me from the crystal sprinkles that fall

Your lips feel foriegn against mine
Cold and smooth
I shiver in your arms, I fall to my knees
My thoughts are racing so quickly

The rain falls slowly
Pitter patter, pitter patter

I am forced to feel what I do not believe 
I love you
I think this, but only for a short moment
Soon, I will know the truth

Why is love so deceiving? 
It twists your words and it mends your mind
It makes you do the unthinkable
Love is the worst kind of manipulation 

The rain falls slowly
Pitter patter, pitter patter
As slowly as my tears stream down my face
They both create a sad, sad river

The droplets of water surround us
We are drowned in sorrow and suffocated by the lies
This is all while the rain falls slowly
Pitter patter, pitter patter
