IN THE RAIN

IN THE RAIN

He stands there in the downpour
His heart forever broken
He's numb now, he can't feel anymore
What he saw will always be unspoken
His love, the one he lived for with someone else
Someone he held so sacred
He wish he didn't forget that book on the shelf
So he didn't see them naked
How long it was going on, that he doesn't know
His mind races as as the rain wets his skin
Why did she do this?  He loved her so!
Still wondering when did all of this begin
He's broken forever, never to be the same
Stunned by this betrayal
The many times she whispered his name
He let's out an anguished wail
He falls to his knees unable to stand
Let alone lift his head
He can only look down at his shaking hands
Wishing that he was dead
How many of her whispers were lies?
Did she ever love him at all?
He feels so empty, unable to cry
So there are no tears to fall
He may be alive but he's dead inside
He will never love again
He quietly let's out a defeated sigh
Knowing he will never mind.
