Drowning in Bones

She is the rain
My now, my back then, my therapy session
My tomorrow
A constant presence in my dreary city
She is the rain that explodes in the sky
Unexpected wetness soaking your cotton t shirt
You're vulnerable
Naked
Stuck in the rain
Damp bones
A coldness that penetrates- everything, everywhere, everything that makes up every essence of who you are
And you can't go home
You're alone
Dripping
In a drenched t shirt
Then you get back
You towel off
You make tea- put on warm socks
Warmth does its best to fill your heart- still failing
But the wetness still clings to you, unrelenting
The rain still pelts the single pane windows- there's wind and thunder and howling
HOW THE HELL ARE THEY STILL STANDING?
The rain can't last forever
You think, but it does
A painful memory refusing to be viewed head on
Just outside of mental realization
MOTHER
It's wet and I can't seem to dry off
Suddenly you're there again
Dripping
Jeans glued to your legs, carrying groceries
For hours in the rain
A consistent Grey storm
That comes in waves
She waits for you
There is no difference in the rain streaming down your face and the tears that you drown in
Ahhhh
Let me explain
Please let me explain
Oh please
I just want to go home just let me go home
Gahhh
There's a towel in the bathroom
And its covered in sunflowers
And it smells like you
Oh it smells like you
Please
I want to go home
I'm still Drowning in your bones
Exorcize my demons with a kiss
I know you're not supposed to romanticize this shit but how else am I supposed to feel alive
I'm drenched to the bone, Dripping
How the hell are you still here
It's been years
Why the hell are you still in my bones
Let me go
It's been years
I'm Drowning
Why won't you let me go
Set me free I just want to be free
Ahhhhhh
