A Rainy Surrender

A Rainy Surrender

                                          Distant memories hide within the mist
                                          Silently they sleep by the rainy morn
                                          Afraid to awake from dreams unborn.

                                          A legacy of dew rests upon the grassy hill
                                          In a sullen hush it comes into form
                                          The silky web of passions lost to the storm. 
                                         
                                          Drops of rain scatter upon the pane 
                                          Like tears that lost their way
                                          Through the empty frames of yesterday.

                                          Gazely upon glossy reflections
                                          Over a ghostly portrait the tears fall
                                          Some stranger who no longer calls.
