And down came the pouring rain!

Adrift in the quiet,
Quivering alone,
Unable to breathe,
Happiness in a wreath below,
Without you, life’s winters without snow,
And down came the pouring rain,
My morsels of pain!
Resting by your side,
Whiffing your familiar scent,
Words fail to pour,
Fearing, what if in vain?
Without you, life’s azures no longer blue,
And down came the pouring rain,
My morsels of pain!
My words, your words,
Hurt scattered as broken stars across,
When the sun sets again,
Love; this cord, still strained,
Without you, life’s petals pale,
And down came the pouring rain,
My morsels of pain!
What I implore seems wrong,
Over and over again!
Menaced by an eclipse of ache,
Emotions; an eternal mess,
Without you, life’s nights hollow,
And down came the pouring rain,
My morsels of pain!
I wish to run far, far away,
Far-flung from hurt,
My wish, Solitude!
Your presence along heart wants too!
For with you, life’s sun starts shining again,
And when down comes the pouring rain,
Life no longer seems vain!

  1. What I implore seems wrong,
    Over and over again!
    Menaced by an eclipse of ache,
    Emotions; an eternal mess,
    Without you, life’s nights hollow,
    And down came the pouring rain,
    My morsels of pain!……loved the composition but these lines are exceptional Nabanita..
