Achedrops

It dropped like raindrops
But they were salty, unlike raindrops 
And like raindrops 
It made things grow 
Sometimes in a row 
Grow 
Grow pain 
Grow misery 
Grow loneliness 
Grow hate 
Grow withdrawal 
Like raindrops 
There was something at the end
Just not a rainbow 
A heartache in a bow 
But just like raindrops, from rain 
I prayed for it
But unlike raindrops
I prayed for it to stop 
Not to pour 
But it did 
I called it achedrops
And tomorrow night
 Is yet another overcast..
