today
I saw a dance

the dance of the rain

it was magical
electrifying
and
terrifying

she held my heart
in her hand
my blood trickling down
her arm,

joining her veins,

till

she became me

and

I became her

I was now the rain
we had two hearts

I danced to every roar

I danced in every lightning

and we became a catastrophe

we brought apocalypse
we brought life
we brought death
and we also brought:

happiness

in the happiness
my sadness died slowly
with the heart of the rain

and it gave away all the sadness

to people who always laughed and laughed

at me.

and now

I was the rain
we had one heart

I danced to every thunder

I danced in every moment of darkness

and we became, I.
